FA complementation group E

Also known as: FACE, FAE

NCBI Gene: 2178ENSG00000112039UniProt: Q9HB96

The Fanconi anemia complementation group (FANC) currently includes FANCA, FANCB, FANCC, FANCD1 (also called BRCA2), FANCD2, FANCE, FANCF, FANCG, FANCI, FANCJ (also called BRIP1), FANCL, FANCM and FANCN (also called PALB2). The previously defined group FANCH is the same as FANCA. Fanconi anemia is a genetically heterogeneous recessive disorder characterized by cytogenetic instability, hypersensitivity to DNA crosslinking agents, increased chromosomal breakage, and defective DNA repair. The members of the Fanconi anemia complementation group do not share sequence similarity; they are related by their assembly into a common nuclear protein complex. This gene encodes the protein for complementation group E. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Interpreting a novel variant
Loss of function is the curated mechanism (Gene2Phenotype), though the gene is not strongly LoF-constrained in the population — weigh truncating variants against that tolerance.Curated gene-level mechanism — a prior for triage, not a per-variant call.
