Disease relevance of FANCG

 

High impact information on FANCG

  • We identified the gene as human XRCC9, a gene which has been shown to complement the MMC-sensitive Chinese hamster mutant UV40, and is suspected to be involved in DNA post-replication repair or cell cycle checkpoint control [5].
  • On treatment with DNA interstrand-cross-linking agents, FANCC and FANCG disruption caused increased clastogenic damage, G2/M arrest, and decreased proliferation [4].
  • RESULTS: FANCC and FANCG disruption abrogated FANCD2 monoubiquitination, confirming an impaired Fanconi anemia pathway function [4].
  • We demonstrate that the FA group G (FANCG) protein is found in mitochondria [6].
  • A physical complex of the Fanconi anemia proteins FANCG/XRCC9 and FANCA [7].

Associations of FANCG with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of FANCG

  • A FANCG mutant truncated at the carboxyl-terminus retained the ability to interact with FANCA [21].
  • We found that FANCG was capable of binding to two separate sites in the BRCA2 protein, located either side of the BRC repeats [22].
  • We found that the C terminus of FANCF interacts directly with FANCG and allows the assembly of other FA proteins into a stable complex [23].
  • The FANCG Fanconi anemia protein interacts with CYP2E1: possible role in protection against oxidative DNA damage [24].
  • FANCG was found to interact with XRCC3, and this interaction was disrupted by the FA-G patient derived mutation L71P [25].
 

Regulatory relationships of FANCG

  • However, a high level of activation was found when FANCA was co-expressed with FANCG, indicating strong, direct interaction between these proteins [26].
  • We found that treatment with TNF-alpha induced FANCG protein expression [27].
 

Other interactions of FANCG

  • To further examine complex assembly, the yeast 3-hybrid system was used to investigate the ability of FANCG to act as a molecular bridge in mediating interaction between other FA proteins [21].
  • Direct interaction of the Fanconi anaemia protein FANCG with BRCA2/FANCD1 [22].
  • The interaction between FANCG and FANCF was ablated by a Leu71Pro mutant of FANCG [21].
  • Using immunoblotting, NM3 and UV40 were found not to express the active monoubiquitinated isoform of the FANCD2 protein, although expression of the FANCD-L isoform was restored in the FANCG cDNA transformants, correlating with the correction of mutagen-sensitivity [12].
  • The amino-terminal region of the FANCA protein is required for FANCG binding, FANCC binding, nuclear localization, and functional activity of the complex [28].
