The tumor suppressor gene TP53 is frequently mutated in human cancers. More than 75% of all mutations are missense substitutions that have been extensively analyzed in various yeast and human cell assays. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) TP53 database (www-p53.iarc.fr) compiles
XPA-deficient mice have a complete deficiency in nucleotide excision repair, and as such they display a cancer predisposition after exposure to several carcinogens. Besides being sensitive to genotoxic agents applied to the skin, they are also susceptible to human carcinogens given orally, like benz
