Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Xeroderma pigmentosum is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by increased sensitivity to sunlight and defects in DNA repair. For a general overview of the disorder, see XPA (278700).

Some patients with xeroderma pigmentosum have been found ...

Diagnosis OMIM Itoh et al. (1996) reported a method for the diagnosis of XPV that utilized the measurement of 3 cellular markers of DNA repair by autoradiography: unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS), recovery of RNA synthesis (RRS), and recovery of replicative ...
Clinical Description OMIM Fujiwara et al. (1981) reported studies of cultured cells from an 8-year-old boy, the son of first-cousin parents, who, they suggested, had a 'new' form of photodermatosis with a defect in the recovery of post-UV DNA synthesis. He ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Masutani et al. (1999) identified the POLH gene and determined that it is the human homolog of yeast Rad30. The authors identified mutations in the POLH gene (603968.0001-603968.0005) in cell lines derived from patients with XPV.
