In the nucleotide excision repair system, UvrB plays a central role in damage recognition and DNA incision by interacting with UvrA and UvrC. We have determined the crystal structure of Thermus thermophilus HB8 UvrB at 1.9 A resolution. UvrB comprises four domains, two of which have an alpha/beta structure resembling the core domains of DNA and RNA helicases ...
