Novel mutations of the FANCG gene causing alternative splicing in Japanese Fanconi anemia.

Abstract excerpt

Fanconi anemia (FA), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a progressive pancytopenia associated with congenital anomalies and high predisposition to malignancies, is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous disease. At least eight complementation groups (FA-A to FA-H) have been identified. Previously, we studied mutations of the FANCA gene, responsible for FA-A, and found pathogenic mutations in 12...
