Supplementary information

XPB also known as ERCC3 is part of the helicase family. It has an approximate mass of 89 kDa. XPB uses ATP to unwind DNA which facilitates various genetic processes. In humans it expresses in tissues where there is active DNA replication and repair occurring including rapidly dividing cells. Its activity is important to the transcription process and DNA damage repair mechanism.
Biological function summary

XPB assists the cellular response to DNA damage by being part of the TFIIH complex which is involved in transcription. This complex plays a role in nucleotide excision repair (NER) where it unwinds DNA segments to allow for lesion repair. In conjunction with other proteins XPB facilitates the resolution of DNA loops and manages the clearance of polymerase during transcription-coupled repair ensuring proper DNA repair and transcription restart.

Pathways

XPB influences both transcription initiation and DNA damage repair being integral to the mechanisms that maintain genome integrity. It interacts closely with proteins like XPD within the NER pathway and its roles in these pathways contribute to the prevention of mutations. XPB's function as a helicase denotes its participation in opening DNA for repair or transcription therefore supporting cell viability and genomic stability.

XPB's deficiency or malfunction links to xeroderma pigmentosum and trichothiodystrophy. These conditions stem from impaired nucleotide excision repair where mutations in XPB affect the efficiency of DNA repair and proper cellular response to damage. Symptoms correlated with these diseases often include increased sensitivity to UV light and neurological deficits connected through pathways involving other TFIIH complex components like XPD signifying the collaboration needed within a cell for effective DNA repair.

Target data

ATP-dependent 3'-5' DNA helicase/translocase (PubMed : 17466626, PubMed : 27193682, PubMed : 33902107, PubMed : 8465201, PubMed : 8663148). Binds dsDNA rather than ssDNA, unzipping it in a translocase rather than classical helicase activity (PubMed : 27193682, PubMed : 33902107). Component of the general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH (TFIIH) core complex (PubMed : 10024882, PubMed : 17466626, PubMed : 8157004, PubMed : 8465201). When complexed to CDK-activating kinase (CAK), involved in RNA transcription by RNA polymerase II. The ATPase activity of XPB/ERCC3, but not its helicase activity, is required for DNA opening; it may wrap around the damaged DNA wedging it open, causing localized melting that allows XPD/ERCC2 helicase to anchor (PubMed : 10024882, PubMed : 17466626). In transcription, TFIIH has an essential role in transcription initiation (PubMed : 30894545, PubMed : 8157004). When the pre-initiation complex (PIC) has been established, TFIIH is required for promoter opening and promoter escape (PubMed : 8157004). The ATP-dependent helicase activity of XPB/ERCC3 is required for promoter opening and promoter escape (PubMed : 10024882). In transcription pre-initiation complexes induces and propagates a DNA twist to open DNA (PubMed : 27193682, PubMed : 33902107). Also involved in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (NER) of damaged DNA (PubMed : 17466626, PubMed : 2111438, PubMed : 8157004). In NER, TFIIH acts by opening DNA around the lesion to allow the excision of the damaged oligonucleotide and its replacement by a new DNA fragment. The structure of the TFIIH transcription complex differs from the NER-TFIIH complex; large movements by XPD/ERCC2 and XPB/ERCC3 are stabilized by XPA (PubMed : 31253769, PubMed : 33902107). XPA retains XPB/ERCC3 at the 5' end of a DNA bubble (mimicking DNA damage) (PubMed : 31253769).
