Ku (Ku70/Ku80) is thought to be the first protein to bind at each DNA end at such a double-strand break.
Ku functions as a ’toolbelt’ protein to recruit the nuclease, polymerase, and ligase activities for NHEJ, much like PCNA or the β-clamp function during DNA replication to recruit other activities

DNA-PK catalytic subunit can bind well to DNA ends own its own, but its affinity is improved even further by interaction with Ku. DNA-PKcs phosphorylates the C-terminus of Artemis
The phosphorylation of the C-terminus alters the conformation of Artemis such that its C-terminal tail is no longer inhibitory for the endonucleolytic activity of Artemis. Artemis can then function to trim 5′ overhangs or 3′ overhangs endonucleolytically

•Nucleotide-excision repair eliminates helix-distorting lesions in a multistep, “cut and-patch” reaction that involves more than 30 proteins.
•It has two branches:
1- Global genome repair: probes the genome for strand distortions.
2- Transcription-coupled repair: which removes distorting lesions that
block elongating RNA polymerases.
Transcription coupled repair is probably part of a broader pathway of transcription-coupled repair that includes a subgroup of nucleotide-excision–repair factors.

Xeroderma Pigmentosum
People with rare, inherited defects in nucleotide excision repair all have hypersensitivity to the sun that is due to defective handling of UV damage, but the clinical features are otherwise extremely heterogeneous.
The syndrome results from defects in the system of global repair, with or without deficiencies in transcription-coupled repair of distorting lesions.

The elimination of cells with low levels of damage protects the body from cancer at the expense of promoting aging, thus revealing a trade-off between these two outcomes of DNA damage.
This phenomenon explains why there has never been a report of cancer in a person with the Cockayne syndrome, despite the repair defect and premature aging .
It indicates a clear dissociation between the outcomes of cancer and accelerated aging that result from DNA damage.

Cells may also induce DNA injury for protection against cancer
How this can be happen?
•With every round of DNA replication, a number of protective telomeric repeats are lost at the ends of chromosomes because
the telomerase enzyme that adds new repeats is silenced in most somatic cells.
•Clonal outgrowth of a precancerous cell results in critically short telomeres that behave similarly to double-strand breaks, awakening the DNA damage response system and triggering
cell-cycle arrest and cell death.
