It exhibits a molecular mass of approximately 103 kDa. This protein is expressed in various tissues with high levels found in the liver and kidney. XPF functions as a DNA endonuclease significantly influencing genomic stability through its activity in DNA repair processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe XPF protein collaborates with ERCC1 to form a heterodimeric complex important for nucleotide excision repair (NER). This complex is essential in recognizing and repairing bulky DNA adducts therefore maintaining DNA integrity. The complex performs specific incisions near DNA damage sites removing lesions that frequently occur due to environmental factors like UV radiation and chemical pollutants.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nXPF functions within the NER and interstrand crosslink repair pathways. In these pathways the XPF-ERCC1 complex coordinates with other proteins like XPA and RPA to accurately excise damaged DNA segments and facilitate repair synthesis. These interactions are important for restoring normal DNA configuration and function after damage thereby preventing mutations and genomic instability.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations in XPF are linked to xeroderma pigmentosum group F (XP-F) and the Cockayne syndrome. XP-F is a disorder characterized by extreme sensitivity to sunlight and an increased risk of skin cancer due to impaired DNA repair capability. In Cockayne syndrome patients experience growth defects and neurological degeneration. Both of these disorders involve dysfunctional DNA repair mechanisms where proteins like ERCC1 and others in the repair pathways fail to adequately compensate for the defective XPF function.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850099609769,"sku":"ab76948","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab76948","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
