摘要
Fanconi anemia(FA)is an autosomal or X-linked recessive disorder characterized by chromosomal instability,bone marrow failure,cancer susceptibility,and a profound sensitivity to agents that produce DNA interstrand cross-link(ICL).To date,15 genes have been identified that,when mutated,result in FA or an FA-like syndrome.It is believed that cellular resistance to DNA interstrand cross-linking agents requires all 15 FA or FAlike proteins.Here,we review our current understanding of how these FA proteins participate in ICL repair and discuss the molecular mechanisms that regulate the FA pathway to maintain genome stability.
