Abstract excerpt
DDB1, a component of the Cul4 ubiquitin ligase complex, promotes protein ubiquitination in diverse cellular functions, including nuclear excision repair, regulation of the cell cycle, and DNA replication. To investigate its physiological significance, we generated mice with null and floxed alleles of the DDB1 gene. Here we report that null mutation of DDB1 caused early embryonic lethality, while conditional...
