ddb-1

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable DNA binding activity. Involved in proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and site of double-strand break. Expressed in several structures, including P1.p; P2.p; P5.ppp; P7.paa; and rectum. Used to study xeroderma pigmentosum. Is an ortholog of human DDB1 (damage specific DNA binding protein 1).
