C. elegans TFIIH subunit GTF-2H5/TTDA is a non-essential transcription factor indispensable for DNA repair
Hereditary mutations in TTDA/GTF2H5 cause a photosensitive form of the rare developmental disorder trichothiodystrophy, however the development of models has been hampered by mutations being lethal. Thijssen et al. show that deficiency of C. elegans TTDA ortholog GTF-2H5 is, compatible with life, in...

description | Hereditary mutations in TTDA/GTF2H5 cause a photosensitive form of the rare developmental disorder trichothiodystrophy, however the development of models has been hampered by mutations being lethal. Thijssen et al. show that deficiency of C. elegans TTDA ortholog GTF-2H5 is, compatible with life, in contrast to depletion of other TFIIH subunits and thus propose that this model could be used for studying the pathogenesis of trichothiodystrophy. |
