Anti-FANCF

Application

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected FANCF in 293T cells were cotransfected with HA-tagged HES1 and FA coding vectors, HeLa cell extracts treated with L685,458 , 293T cells were cotransfected with FA gene expression plasmids as indicated with either empty, or BACE1 or HES1 coding vectors, 293T cells were cotransfected with FANCF expression plasmids along with increasing amounts of HES1 coding vector (Tremblay, C.S., et al. (2008). Blood Journal. 112:P2062-2070).
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected FANCF in HeLa cells treated with the gamma-secretase inhibitor L685,458 (Tremblay, C.S., et al. (2008). Blood Journal. 112:P2062-2070).

General description

Fanconi anemia group F protein (FANCF), also known as Protein FACF, and encoded by the gene symbol FANCF, is a DNA repair protein that may operate in a postreplication DNA repair or may be involved in a cell cycle checkpoint function. Recent studies have implicated that FACF may play an important role in interstrand DNA cross-link repair and in the maintenance of normal chromosome stability. Mutations affecting the FANCF gene have been associated with Fanconi anemia complementation group F (FANCF), a disorder affecting all bone marrow elements and resulting in anemia, leukopenia and thrombopenia. This disorder is also associated with cardiac, renal and limb malformations, dermal pigmentary changes, and a predisposition to the development of malignancies. At the cellular level it is associated with hypersensitivity to DNA-damaging agents, chromosomal instability (increased chromosome breakage) and defective DNA repair.
