XPV cells are characterized by delayed completion of DNA replication and increased mutagenesis following UV irradiation. In cell-free extracts of XPV lymphoblasts, functional DNA polymerase \u03b7 is required for the complete replication of a double-stranded plasmid containing either a single (6\u20134) photoproduct or a cyclobutane pyrimidine dime(CPD), the major mutagenic UV-induced lesion. In cultured XPV cells, replication arrest activates downstream signalling pathways, leading to hyperphosphorylation of the 34-kDa subunit of the trimeric single-stranded DNA-binding protein, RPA (replication protein A). Many of the RAD30 mutations identified in XPV cells result in truncation and inactivation of DNA polymerase \u03b7. To examine whether polymorphisms in the RAD30 gene that result in altered polymerase \u03b7 function, rather than enzyme inactivation, might contribute to individual susceptibility to skin cancer, methods to screen for sequence changes in the RAD30 gene in human genomic DNA have been developed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1042\/bst0310252","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,12,15]],"date-time":"2008-12-15T14:48:38Z","timestamp":1229352518000},"page":"252-256","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1042\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["The RAD30 cancer susceptibility gene"],"prefix":"10.1042","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"M.P.","family":"Carty","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Glynn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Maher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Diagnostics Centre, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T.","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Diagnostics Centre, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland"},{"name":"National Centre for Biomedical Engineering Science, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Yao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Health, University of Cincinnati,Cincinnati, OH, U.S.A."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Dixon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Health, University of Cincinnati,Cincinnati, OH, U.S.A."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"McCann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College Hospital, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.","family":"Rynn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College Hospital, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Flanagan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"288","container-title":["Biochemical Society Transactions"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/portlandpress.com\/biochemsoctrans\/article-pdf\/31\/1\/252\/509736\/bst0310252.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/portlandpress.com\/biochemsoctrans\/article-pdf\/31\/1\/252\/509736\/bst0310252.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,17]],"date-time":"2021-11-17T19:56:24Z","timestamp":1637178984000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/portlandpress.com\/biochemsoctrans\/article\/31\/1\/252\/63215\/The-RAD30-cancer-susceptibility-gene"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2003,2,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2003,2,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1042\/bst0310252","relation":{},"ISSN":["0300-5127","1470-8752"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0300-5127","type":"print"},{"value":"1470-8752","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2003,2,1]]}}}
