DNA damage-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DDB1 gene.[1][2][3]

Contents

Function

This gene encodes the large subunit of DNA damage-binding protein which is a heterodimer composed of a large and a small (DDB2) subunit. This protein functions in nucleotide excision repair. Its defective activity causes the repair defect in the patients with xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group E (XPE). However, it remains for mutation analysis to demonstrate whether the defect in XPE patients is in this gene or the gene encoding the small subunit. In addition, Best vitelliform macular dystrophy is mapped to the same region as this gene on 11q, but no sequence alternations of this gene are demonstrated in Best disease patients.[3]

Interactions

DDB1 has been shown to interact with Transcription initiation protein SPT3 homolog,[4] GCN5L2,[5] DDB2,[6][7] CUL4A,[7] CUL4B[7] and P21.[8]
