XPC: Proteins and Enzymes

Human XPC (Xeroderma pigmentosum group C) is a member of a family of proteins that has been shown to be involved in the repair of DNA via the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. Specifically, XPC is believed to be a part of a heteromeric protein complex that is involved in the recognition of the DNA lesions during global genomic repair but not transcription-coupled repair.
