“…The FA pathway can be divided into four major modules: lesion recognition, upstream core complex recruitment, FANCD2–FANCI complex monoubiquitination, and downstream protein recruitment [22]. The genes involved in the FA pathway have been identified as FANCA [23], FANCB [24], FANCC [25], FANCD1 / BRCA2 [26], FANCD2 [27], FANCE [28], FANCF [29], FANCG [30], FANCI [31], FANCJ / BRIP1 / BACH1 [32], FANCL [33], FANCM [34], FANCN [35], FANCO / RAD51C [36], FANCP / SLX4 [37], FANCQ / ERCC4 / XPF [38], FANCR / RAD51 [39], FANCS / BRCA1 [40], FANCT / UBE2T [41], FANCU / XRCC2 [36], FANCV / REV7 / MAD2L2 [42], and FANCW / RFWD3 [43]. The lesion-recognition process is completed by FANCM, whereas FAAP24 binds to FANCM to form ligands that specifically target DNA damage sites and participate in DNA damage repair [44].…”
