Abstract excerpt
The human FANCG/XRCC9 gene, which is defective in Fanconi anemia complementation group G (FA-G) cells, was first cloned by genetic complementation of the mitomycin C (MMC) sensitivity of CHO mutant UV40. The CHO NM3 mutant was subsequently assigned to the same complementation group. The parental AA8 CHO cells are hemizygous at the FancG locus, and we identified frameshift mutations that result in N-terminal...
