title: Check, Check …Triple Check: Multi-Step DNA Lesion Identification by Nucleotide Excision Repair.
abstract: In this issue, Li et al. (2015) uncover roles for the XPB and XPD helicases and for XPA during damage verification in nucleotide excision repair, supporting a novel tripartite damage checking mechanism that combines extreme versatility with narrow specificity.
