Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a vital DNA repair pathway which acts on a wide range of helix-distorting lesions. The importance of this pathway is highlighted by its functional conservation throughout evolution and by several human diseases, such as xeroderma pigmentosum, which are caused by a defective NER pathway. This review summarizes the NER mechanisms present in all three domains of life: eukaryotes, bacteria, and archaea.

ABSTRACT Nucleotide excision repair and translesion DNA synthesis are two processes that operate at arrested replication forks to reduce the frequency of recombination and promote cell survival following UV-induced DNA damage. While nucleotide excision repair is generally considered to be error free, translesion synthesis can result in mutations, making it important to identify the order and conditions that determine when each process is recruited to the arrested fork. We show here that at early times following UV irradiation, the recovery of DNA synthesis occurs through nucleotide excision repair of the lesion. In the absence of repair or when the repair capacity of the cell has been exceeded, translesion synthesis by polymerase V (Pol V) allows DNA synthesis to resume and is required to protect the arrested replication fork from degradation. Pol II and Pol IV do not contribute detectably to survival, mutagenesis, or restoration of DNA synthesis, suggesting that, in vivo, these polymerases are not functionally redundant with Pol V at UV-induced lesions. We discuss a model in which cells first use DNA repair to process replication-arresting UV lesions before resorting to mutagenic pathways such as translesion DNA synthesis to bypass these impediments to replication progression.

ABSTRACT Xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein plays a key role in DNA damage recognition in global genome nucleotide excision repair (NER). The protein forms in vivo a heterotrimeric complex involving one of the two human homologs of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad23p and centrin 2, a centrosomal protein. Because centrin 2 is dispensable for the cell-free NER reaction, its role in NER has been unclear. Binding experiments with a series of truncated XPC proteins allowed the centrin 2 binding domain to be mapped to a presumed α-helical region near the C terminus, and three amino acid substitutions in this domain abrogated interaction with centrin 2. Human cell lines stably expressing the mutant XPC protein exhibited a significant reduction in global genome NER activity. Furthermore, centrin 2 enhanced the cell-free NER dual incision and damaged DNA binding activities of XPC, which likely require physical interaction between XPC and centrin 2. These results reveal a novel vital function for centrin 2 in NER, the potentiation of damage recognition by XPC.
