Abstract:
Fanconi anemia (FA) is an rare autosomal recessive inherited disease which manifests progressive marrow failure, congenital bone malformation, high risk to cancers and so on. Chromatin of FA cells display auto-instability and high hypersensitivity to interstrand DNA cross-links such as mitomycin C. As normally FA develop into acute myeloid leukemia easily, it has been regarded as pre-leukemia state. Till now 11 FA genes have been found and play a role in sustaining stability of gene groups through the same mechanism. As an active connecting protein, FANCF protein play an important part in correct FA complex formation. Which makes FANCD2 single ubiquitin. Ubiquitin FANCD2 induces chromatin and BRCA1 interact, and repair injured DNA. FA gene defect makes gene group instable and increases the risk of chromatin collapse, which finally leads to acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.
