Excision repair cross-complementing (ERCC) is: a set of proteins which are involved in DNA repair.
In humans, ERCC proteins are transcribed from the: following genes:
ERCC1, ERCC2, ERCC3, ERCC4, ERCC5, ERCC6, and ERCC8.
Members 1 though 5 are associated with Xeroderma Pigmentosum.
Members 6 and 8 are associated with Cockayne syndrome.
