Description

Xeroderma pigmentosum D

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable 5'-3' DNA helicase activity and damaged DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of chromosome segregation; regulation of mitotic cell cycle; and response to UV. Located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and polytene chromosome. Part of transcription factor TFIIH core complex and transcription factor TFIIH holo complex. Is expressed in embryonic cortex; embryonic/larval fat body; embryonic/larval salivary gland; and organism. Used to study Cockayne syndrome; photosensitive trichothiodystrophy; and xeroderma pigmentosum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including acoustic neuroma; acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; carcinoma (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); and xeroderma pigmentosum (multiple). Orthologous to human ERCC2 (ERCC excision repair 2, TFIIH core complex helicase subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
