Abstract excerpt
XRCC1 is an essential protein required for the maintenance of genomic stability through its implication in DNA repair. The main function of XRCC1 is associated with its role in the single-strand break (SSB) and base excision repair (BER) pathways that share several enzymatic steps. We show here that the polymorphic XRCC1 variant R194W presents a defect in its interaction with the DNA glycosylase OGG1 after...
