Intermediate DNA repair activity associated with the 322delG allele of the fanconi anemia complementation group C gene.

Abstract excerpt

Fanconi anemia (FA) is an autosomal recessive disorder associated with pancytopenia and cancer susceptibility. The disorder is heterogeneous, with at least nine complementation groups having been identified. Several recent studies have suggested that defective plasmid DNA end-joining is a consistent feature of FA cells. It was therefore surprising to discover a strain of fibroblasts from an FA patient that...
