Abstract excerpt
The DNA interstrand crosslink (ICL) is an extremely deleterious DNA lesion that covalently crosslinks complementary strands and prevents the strand-separation reaction. In higher eukaryotes, the Fanconi anemia proteins, FANCI and FANCD2, form a heterodimer and play essential roles in ICL repair. Human FANCI and FANCD2 are large proteins with molecular masses of 149kDa and 164kDa, respectively, and were reportedly...
