Biological function summary
ERCC1 plays a significant role in the DNA damage repair process where it interacts with its partner protein XPF to excise damaged DNA. The ERCC1-XPF complex recognizes and cuts both single- and double-stranded DNA therefore enabling the removal of DNA lesions caused by UV radiation or chemical mutagens. This action prevents mutations by ensuring accurate DNA replication and transcription.
Pathways
The ERCC1 protein is primarily involved in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) and interstrand cross-link repair pathways. Within these pathways ERCC1 provides repair capacity to the cell maintaining the functionality of the DNA by partnering with proteins such as XPF and participating in cross-link repair mechanisms. By coordinating with proteins like XPA and RPA ERCC1 assists in identifying and binding the damaged DNA facilitating the recruitment of other repair proteins.
