Rabbit anti-Human FANCI Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9NVI1

Target Species

Human

Target Name

FANCI

Target Full Name

Fanconi anemia group I protein

Target Function

Plays an essential role in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination and in the repair of interstrand DNA cross-links (ICLs) by promoting FANCD2 monoubiquitination by FANCL and participating in recruitment to DNA repair sites. Required for maintenance of chromosomal stability. Specifically binds branched DNA: binds both single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Participates in S phase and G2 phase checkpoint activation upon DNA damage.

Target Involvement

Fanconi anemia complementation group I (FANCI)

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Observed in spots localized in pairs on the sister chromatids of mitotic chromosome arms and not centromeres, one on each chromatids. These foci coincide with common fragile sites. They are frequently interlinked through BLM-associated ultra-fine DNA bridges.

Target Synonyms

FANCI; FANCI gene; FANCI_HUMAN; Fanconi anemia group I protein; Fanconi anemia; complementation group I; FLJ10719; FLJ14658; KIAA1794; Protein FACI; Protein FANCI

Target Background

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 I. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
