“…15,17,19 FANCA, FANCG, FANCM, FANCE, FANCD2, and FANCI are phosphoproteins, underscoring the importance of phosphorylation to the FA core complex and FA pathway. 12,17,[20][21][22][23][24][25] Importantly, identified posttranslational modifications of FA proteins, including mono-ubiquitylation and phosphorylation, FANCD2 foci formation, and translocation of the core complex into the nucleus all occur both during undamaged S phase and in response to DNA-damaging agents such as MMC. Cells arrest in S phase after induction of interstrand crosslinks.…”
