Summary: Predicted to enable DNA binding activity; protein domain specific binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage; nucleotide-excision repair; and positive regulation of transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in forelimb bud. Used to study xeroderma pigmentosum group A. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in xeroderma pigmentosum and xeroderma pigmentosum group A. Orthologous to human XPA (XPA, DNA damage recognition and repair factor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
