UV-stimulated scaffold protein A is a protein that in humans that is encoded by the UVSSA gene (previously KIAA1530).[5] This protein is involved in DNA repair in response to UV radiation damage.[5] In particular, it interacts with nucleotide excision repair proteins (specifically TC-NER subunits) along with RNA polymerase II subunits that have stalled.[5]
Mutations in this gene have been identified to cause the UV-sensitive syndrome and recently, its important role in Transcription-coupled repair has been identified.[6]
Clinical relevance
Mutations in this gene cause UV-sensitive syndrome.[7]
