A unified model for the molecular basis ofXeroderma pigmentosum-Cockayne Syndrome

Abstract: Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) is a pathway that removes lesions distorting the DNA helix. The molecular basis of the rare diseases Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) and Cockayne Syndrome (CS) are explained based on the defects happening in 2 NER branches: Global-Genome Repair and Transcription-Coupled Repair, respectively. Nevertheless, both afflictions sporadically occur together, giving rise to XP/CS; however, the molecular basis of XP/CS is not understood very well. Many efforts have been made to clarify why mu… Show more

“…Cockayne’s Syndrome is an accelerated aging disease involving mutations in either Cockayne syndrome group A (CSA) or CSB proteins, involved in DNA repair, leading to progressive neurodegeneration [132, 133]. Bohr and coworkers verified that one feature of deficiency in CSB mutant animals is activation of PARP1, and increased PAR levels in CSB m/m cells [134].…”

“…A recent report proposed that XP-CS may result from the retention of the NER intermediate TFIIH during cellular attempts at repairing UV and other bulky lesions [59]. During NER, a molecular complex called TFIIH wedges between DNA strands at the site of a lesion.…”

“…These XPB and XPD mutations may prevent CAK module dissociation that is required for NER or could block normal function of other DNA repair factors to cause delayed transcriptional resumption (i.e. after DNA damage) commonly seen in XP/CS patients …”
