Gene: [09q223/XPA2] xeroderma pigmentosum, complementation group A2; fast complementation DNA repair in xeroderma (group A2); [XPA XP1 XPAC ]

COM

MIM, with reference to the data of Takebe-1989 (personal communication) on the cloning of this gene and results of in situ hybridization on chromosome, indicates its regional location as 9q22, while Henning-1989, basing on results of blot hybridization with somatic hybrid DNA, reported the localization to 9q34. Possibly different forms and genes of xeroderma pigmentosum are dealt with."

MOP

Fast kinetic is characteristic for the complementation.

HET

This form of xerodeerma pigmentosum was previously (Keijzer-1984,1987) mapped to Chr 1 (GEM:01q4/XPA1). However, in 1989 (see Comment) it was demonstrated that a similar (with respect to clinical genetic features) mutation is related to a gene in Chr 9q. This suggests a genetic heterogeneity in complementation group A of reparation mutations; more than ten forms of xeroderma pigmentosum are currently known; for more details, see GEM:01q4/XPA1."
