XP-A 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. Group A patients show the most severe skin symptoms and progressive neurological disorders.<ref>PMID:1339397</ref> <ref>PMID:1372103</ref> <ref>PMID:9671271</ref> | ||

+ | XPA (xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A), a key scaffold protein in nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway, is important in DNA damage verification and repair proteins recruitment. Earlier studies had mapped the minimal DNA-binding domain (MBD) of XPA to a region corresponding to residues 98-219. However, recent studies indicated that the region involving residues 98-239 is the redefined DNA-binding domain (DBD), which binds to DNA substrates with a much higher binding affinity than MBD and possesses a nearly identical binding affinity to the full-length XPA protein. However, the structure of the redefined DBD domain of XPA (XPA-DBD) remains to be investigated. Here, we present the crystal structure of XPA-DBD at 2.06A resolution. Structure of the C-terminal region of XPA has been extended by 21 residues (Arg211-Arg231) as compared with previously reported MBD structures. The structure reveals that the C-terminal extension (Arg211-Arg231) is folded as an alpha-helix with multiple basic residues. The positively charged surface formed in the last C-terminal helix suggests its critical role in DNA binding. Further structural analysis demonstrates that the last C-terminal region (Asp217-Thr239) of XPA-DBD might undergo a conformational change to directly bind to the DNA substrates. This study provides a structural basis for understanding the possible mechanism of enhanced DNA-binding affinity of XPA-DBD. | ||
