    Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene is the large subunit (p127) of the heterodimeric DNA damage-binding (DDB) complex while another protein (p48) forms the small subunit. This protein complex functions in nucleotide-excision repair and binds to DNA following UV damage. Defective activity of this complex causes the repair defect in patients with xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group E (XPE) - an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by photosensitivity and early onset of carcinomas. However, it remains for mutation analysis to demonstrate whether the defect in XPE patients is in this gene or the gene encoding the small subunit. In addition, Best vitelliform mascular dystrophy is mapped to the same region as this gene on 11q, but no sequence alternations of this gene are demonstrated in Best disease patients. The protein encoded by this gene also functions as an adaptor molecule for the cullin 4 (CUL4) ubiquitin E3 ligase complex by facilitating the binding of substrates to this complex and the ubiquitination of proteins.

    vpr The two WD-40 motifs (residues 1041-1393) in the C-terminal region of DCAF1 form a complex with HIV-1 Vpr and DDB1. The double mutant DCAF1 R1247/1283A completely abolishes its ability to bind both Vpr and DDB1 PubMed
    vpr Co-immunoprecipitation and glycerol-gradient sedimentation demonstrate that HIV-1 Vpr, VPRBP, DDB1, SLX4, MUS81, EME1, ERCC1, and ERCC4 form a complex PubMed

    vpr DDB1 overexpression enables G2 cell cycle arrest by both HIV-1 Vpr and its carboxy-terminally truncated form C81 PubMed
    vpr HIV-1 Vpr(Q65R) mutant, which is defective in Cul4A-DDB1 (DCAF1) binding, undergoes proteasome-mediated degradation at a higher rate than wild-type Vpr. DCAF1 overexpression stabilizes wild-type Vpr and leads to its cytoplasmic accumulation PubMed
    vpr DCAF1 interacts with DDB1 as well as the Vpr-UNG2 complex, which leads to polyubiquitination of UNG2 via Vpr PubMed
    vpr HIV-1 Vpr interferes with the interaction of DDB1 and DDB2 in cells PubMed
    vpr HIV-1 Vpr interacts with damage-specific DNA-binding protein 1 (DDB1) in cells. L64P mutation in DDB1 fails to interact efficiently with Vpr PubMed

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
