Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) removes DNA lesions generated by ultraviolet irradiation. Xeroderma pigmentosum and Cockayne syndrome are the representative disorders associated with NER deficiency. We performed DNA repair assays on potentially NER-deficient cases without definite diagnosis before, and we aimed to identify new disease responsible genes. From the screening, we found two intriguing cases.
