- Abstract
- Mutations in the XPD gene result in xeroderma pigmentosum
(XP) and trichothiodystrophy (TTD), the
phenotypes of which are often intricate. To understand
the genotype/phenotype relationship, we engineered
recombinant TFIIHs in which XPD subunits carry amino
acid changes found in XPD patients. We demonstrate
that all the XPD mutations are detrimental for XPD
helicase activity, thus explaining the NER defect. We
also show that TFIIH from TTD patients, but not from
XP patients, exhibits a significant in vitro basal tran-
scription defect in addition to a reduced intracellular
concentration. Moreover, when XPD mutations pre-
vent interaction with the p44 subunit of TFIIH, transactivation
directed by certain nuclear receptors is in-
hibited, regardless of TTD versus XP phenotype, thus
explaining the overlapping symptoms. The implications
of these mutations are discussed using a structural
model of the XPD protein. Our study provides explana-
tions for the nature and the severity of the various
clinical features. (literal)
