XP-E is thought to be involved with the recognition of
damaged DNA because it has the capacity to bind to UV-
damaged DNA
XP-F in association with the ERCC1 protein, incises DNA on
the 5' side of the damaged site
XP-G incises DNA 3' to the damaged site
XP-V protein is a low-fidelity class Y DNA polymerase, that
can replicate UV-induced pyrimidine dimers in vivo with the
insertion of the correct bases in the daughter strand
CSA likely participates in a CSB/RNA polII complex stalled
at damaged sites in transcriptionally active DNA that helps
remove the stalled RNA polII from the DNA damage site.
CSB is believed to be a DNA helicase that is required for
ubiquitinating RNA polII for its remove and degradation at
sites of DNA damage.
