Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the gene defective in Fanconi anemia complementation group C, FAC, are responsible for a subset of Fanconi anemia, a group of autosomal recessive disorders characterized by chromosomal instability, hypersensitivity to cross-linking agents, and cancer susceptibility. Although abnormalities in DNA repair have been suspected, localization of the FAC gene product to the cytoplasm has cast doubt on such a...
