Proteins

Description

1493 amino acids ; 168415 Da

Function

The Cockayne syndrome B (CSB) gene encodes for a DNA-dependent ATPase which is involved in the preferential repair of active genes. The CSB gene product is recruited to RNA polymerase II complexes and enhances elongation on an undamaged template by a factor of about three.

Mutations

Germinal

13 base substitutions ; 4 small deletions ; 3 small insertions ; 2 gross rearrangements

Implicated in

Entity name
Cockayne syndrome, CS group B
Disease
The Cockayne syndrome B is characterized by sensitivity to sunlight, dwarfism, precociously senile appearance, pigmentary retinal degeneration, optic atrophy and deafness.
