Abstract
Microinjection of cell extracts prepared from both human placenta and HeLa cells into xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) cells of complementation group A restores unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) in these cells after UV irradiation [de Jonge, A., Vermeulen, W., Klein, B. & Hoeijmakers, J. (1983) EMBO J. 2, 637-641]. These cells also showed normal resistance to UV irradiation. The half-life of the factors in the cell extracts corresponding to the UDS activity (factor A) was 14 hr in XP cells of group A, and the maximal level of UDS was exerted 2 hr after microinjection. The factors were sensitive to protease treatment but not to RNase treatment and were found to be approximately equal to 160 and approximately equal to 90 kDa by gel filtration. These two fractions of the factor(s) acted specifically in XP cells of complementation group A among complementation groups A, B, C, D, F, G, and probably E and H.
