Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) was first described in 1874 by Hebra and Kaposi. [1] It is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by photosensitivity, pigmentary changes, premature skin aging, and malignant tumor development due to cellular hypersensitivity to ultraviolet radiation resulting from a defect in DNA repair.

Evolutionary conservation of excision repair in Schizosaccharomyces pombe: Evidence for a family of sequences related to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAD2 gene [PDF]
Cells mutated at the rad13 locus in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe are deficient in excision-repair of UV damage. We have cloned the S.pombe rad13 gene by its ability to complement the UV sensitivity of a rad13 mutant.

This study reports a novel case of trichothiodystrophy (TTD) linked to compound heterozygous ERCC2 variants, presenting with progressive cerebral hypomyelination. The findings highlight a rare association between ERCC2 mutations and hypomyelinating leukodystrophy, expanding the current understanding of TTD‐related neurodevelopmental disorders. ABSTRACT
