  6. Slide 6: What is Fanconi Anemia (FA)?

    What is Fanconi Anemia (FA)? • Background: Caused by mutations in FANC family of genes which are involved in DNA repair DNA double- Fanconi anemia complex B • FANCA mutations: 60-70% of cases strand break A C M DNA repaired F • Disruption of FA pathway permits accumulation of E L G interstrand cross
