XP-C is a rare human autosomal recessive disease characterized by solar sensitivity, high predisposition for developing cancers on areas exposed to sunlight and, in some cases, neurological abnormalities. Function XPC_HUMAN Involved in global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) by acting as damage sensing and DNA-binding factor component of the XPC complex. Has only a low DNA repair activity by itself which is stimulated by RAD23B and RAD23A. Has a preference to bind DNA containing a short single-stranded segment but not to damaged oligonucleotides. This feature is proposed to be related to a dynamic sensor function: XPC can rapidly screen duplex DNA for non-hydrogen-bonded bases by forming a transient nucleoprotein intermediate complex which matures into a stable recognition complex through an intrinsic single-stranded DNA-binding activity. The XPC complex is proposed to represent the first factor bound at the sites of DNA damage and together with other core recognition factors, XPA, RPA and the TFIIH complex, is part of the pre-incision (or initial recognition) complex. The XPC complex recognizes a wide spectrum of damaged DNA characterized by distortions of the DNA helix such as single-stranded loops, mismatched bubbles or single stranded overhangs. The orientation of XPC complex binding appears to be crucial for inducing a productive NER. XPC complex is proposed to recognize and to interact with unpaired bases on the undamaged DNA strand which is followed by recruitment of the TFIIH complex and subsequent scanning for lesions in the opposite strand in a 5'-to-3' direction by the NER machinery. Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) which are formed upon UV-induced DNA damage esacpe detection by the XPC complex due to a low degree of structural perurbation. Instead they are detected by the UV-DDB complex which in turn recruits and cooperates with the XPC complex in the respective DNA repair. In vitro, the XPC:RAD23B dimer is sufficient to initiate NER; it preferentially binds to cisplatin and UV-damaged double-stranded DNA and also binds to a variety of chemically and structurally diverse DNA adducts. XPC:RAD23B contacts DNA both 5' and 3' of a cisplatin lesion with a preference for the 5' side. XPC:RAD23B induces a bend in DNA upon binding. XPC:RAD23B stimulates the activity of DNA glycosylases TDG and SMUG1. Publication Abstract from PubMed 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 Trp133 and Val136 into two separate hollows of the PH domain, coupled with extensive electrostatic contacts. Analysis of several XPC mutants revealed that particularly Trp133 is essential for binding to the PH domain. In cell lines stably expressing mutant XPC, alanine substitution at Trp133 or Trp133/Val136 compromised UV resistance, recruitment of TFIIH to DNA damage, and removal of UV-induced photoproducts from genomic DNA. These findings show how TFIIH complex is recruited by XPC to damaged DNA, advancing our understanding of the early stage of GGR.
