Abstract excerpt
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a sliding clamp protein that coordinates DNA replication with various DNA maintenance events that are critical for human health. Recently, a hypomorphic homozygous serine to isoleucine (S228I) substitution in PCNA was described to underlie a rare DNA repair disorder known as PCNA-associated DNA repair disorder (PARD). PARD symptoms range from UV sensitivity,...
