Abstract excerpt
Functional effects of Arg228Gln and Val2343Leu XPA polymorphisms on benzo[a]pyrene-r-7,t-8-dihydrodiol-t-9,10-epoxide-(+/-)-anti (BPDE) survival and repair were investigated in SV40 immortalized XP12RO cells complemented with wild type and polymorphic XPA cDNAs in an inducible cDNA expression system. In contrast to previous studies showing little impact of XPA polymorphisms on UV survival and repair, cells...
