XPB (Xeroderma Pigmentosum B) is an ATP dependent human DNA helicase that is a part of the TFIIH transcription factor complex.

Contents

Structure

The 3D structure of the archeael homologue of XPB has been solved by X-ray crystallography by Dr. John Tainer and his group at The Scripps Research Institute.[1]

Purpose

XPG plays a significant role in normal basal transcription, transcription coupled repair (TCR), and nucleotide excision repair (NER). Purified XPB has been shown to unwind DNA with 3’-5’polarity.

Disorders

Mutations in XPB and other related complementation groups, XPA-XPG, leads to a number of genetic disorders such as Xeroderma Pigmentosum, Cockayne's syndrome, and Trichothiodystrophy.
