In the Materials and methods section, the cells used for our experiments were the SV40 transformed XPA-deficient (GM04312) and matched complemented (GM15876A) cells from Coriell Cell Repository. The XPA mutation background was incorrectly identified as XP12R0 in the original manuscript. The XP20S mutation is what was actually used.
In addition, the XPC mutant and complemented cells that we used were the SV40-transformed lines, GM15983 (XPC mutant line XP4PA) and GM16248 (XP4PA+XPC). Both were obtained from Coriell Cell Repository and are referenced below.
