fanconi anemia/arabidopsis thaliana

Fanconi anemia (FA) is a human autosomal recessive disorder characterized by chromosomal instability, developmental pathologies, predisposition to cancer, and reduced fertility. So far, 19 genes have been implicated in FA, most of them involved in DNA repair. Some are conserved across higher

Fanconi anemia is a severe genetic disorder. Mutations in one of several genes lead to defects in DNA crosslink (CL) repair in human cells. An essential step in CL repair is the activation of the pathway by the monoubiquitination of the heterodimer FANCD2/FANCI, which recruits the nuclease FAN1 to

The human hereditary disease Fanconi anemia leads to severe symptoms, including developmental defects and breakdown of the hematopoietic system. It is caused by single mutations in the FANC genes, one of which encodes the DNA translocase FANCM (for Fanconi anemia complementation group M), which is

Fanconi anaemia complementation group M protein (FANCM), a component of the human Fanconi anemia pathway, acts as DNA translocase that is essential during the repair of DNA interstrand cross-links. The DNA-damage-binding function of FANCM is strongly enhanced by the histone fold-containing
