Proteins
Description
396 amino acids - 44 kDa
Function
The Cockayne syndrome group A (CSA) gene encodes a WD repeat protein that interacts with the Cockayne syndrome group B ( CSB) protein and a subunit of RNA polymerase II transcription factor TFIIH suggesting that the products of CSA and CSB genes are involved in transcription. The CSA defect leads to defective strand specific repair of transcriptionally active genes.
Mutations
Germinal
one base substitution
Implicated in
Entity name
Cockayne syndrome, CS group A
Disease
The Cockayne syndrome A is characterized by sensitivity to sunlight, dwarfism, precociously senile appearance, pigmentary retinal degeneration, optic atrophy and deafness.
