VACTERL-H Association and Fanconi Anemia.
Patients with Fanconi anemia (FA) often have birth defects that suggest the diagnosis of VATER association. A review of 2,245 cases of FA reported in the literature from 1927 to 2012 identified 108 cases with at least 3 of the defining features of VATER association; only 29 had been so noted by the authors. The FA VATER signature was the significantly higher frequency of renal and limb (radial ...
متن کاملThe 13th Fanconi Anemia Gene Identified: FANCI – Importance of the ‘Fanconi Anemia Pathway’ for Cellular Oncology
After quite some scientific debate over the last decade, it has become evident that chromosomal instability is a major driving force in the pathogenesis of the vast majority of human cancers [1–3]. In addition, different patterns of chromosomal instability appear to have different clinical implications [4,5]. Yet, unlike for the less common form of genomic instability caused by failing DNA mism...
متن کاملIdentification of the Fanconi Anemia Complementation Group I Gene, FANCI
To identify the gene underlying Fanconi anemia (FA) complementation group I we studied informative FA-I families by a genome-wide linkage analysis, which resulted in 4 candidate regions together encompassing 351 genes. Candidates were selected via bioinformatics and data mining on the basis of their resemblance to other FA genes/proteins acting in the FA pathway, such as: degree of evolutionary...
متن کاملDefective FANCI Binding by a Fanconi Anemia-Related FANCD2 Mutant
FANCD2 is a product of one of the genes associated with Fanconi anemia (FA), a rare recessive disease characterized by bone marrow failure, skeletal malformations, developmental defects, and cancer predisposition. FANCD2 forms a complex with FANCI (ID complex) and is monoubiquitinated, which facilitates the downstream interstrand crosslink (ICL) repair steps, such as ICL unhooking and nucleolyt...
متن کاملPhenotypic consequences of mutations in the Fanconi anemia FAC gene: an International Fanconi Anemia Registry study.
Fanconi anemia (FA) is a genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous disorder defined by cellular hypersensitivity to DNA cross-linking agents; mutations in the gene defective in FA complementation group C, FAC, are responsible for the syndrome in a subset of patients. We have performed an analysis of the clinical effects of specific mutations in the FAC gene. Using the amplification refractor...
