Abstract

To understand the mechanism of nucleotide excision repair (NER), one of the major human DNA repair pathways, we have set up a DNA repair system in which a linear damaged DNA substrate is immobilized by its terminus. By isolating functionally active intermediate complexes, our data dissect the ordered arrival and displacement of NER factors in the progress of the dual incision step. We describe (i) the role of ATP in remodelling the NER-initiating complex of XPC/TFIIH/damaged DNA as a prerequisite for the recruitment of the next NER factors; (ii) the coordination between damage removal and DNA resynthesis and the release of XPC-HR23B, TFIIH and XPA upon arrival of XPG and XPF-ERCC1, respectively; (iii) how RPA remains associated with the excised DNA initiating the assembly of resynthesis factors such as PCNA; (iv) the recycling of XPC-HR23B, TFIIH and XPA in the NER; and the shuttling of TFIIH between NER and transcription. Thus, our findings define multiple functions of NER factors to explain the molecular basis of human NER disorders.

  • Superposition of Rad33 in the Rad33-Rad14 complex model onto the TFIIH/Rad4-Rad23-Rad33 initial recognition complex shows how Rad14 can interact with the Rad4-Rad23-Rad33 recognition complex while maintaining the TFIIH interaction, bridging the steps of initial damage recognition and damage verification.

    “Superposition of Rad33 in the Rad33-Rad14 complex model onto this structure (Fig. 5D) shows how Rad14 can interact with the Rad4–Rad23–Rad33 recognition complex (38,42) while maintaining the TFIIH interaction, bridging the steps of initial damage recognition and damage verification.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
