Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide-excision repair (NER) is an important cellular defence mechanism against mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. The essential yeast genes RAD3 (ref. 2) and SSL2 (RAD25), homologues of the human xeroderma pigmentosum genes XPD and XPB respectively, have been implicated in NER in yeast. The products of these genes are also subunits of (Rad3 protein) or associate with (Ssl2 protein) purified yeast RNA polymerase...
