Abstract excerpt
In global genome repair (GGR), XPC detects damaged nucleotides and recruits TFIIH complex. The small acidic region of XPC binds to the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of TFIIH subunit p62; however, the recognition mechanism remains elusive. Here, we use nuclear magnetic resonance to present the tertiary structure of XPC bound to the PH domain. The XPC acidic region forms a long string stabilized by insertion of...
