Direct sequencing of genomic DNA from seven FA-G probands with one mutant allele not detected in the SSCP study and three additional probands assigned to the FA-G complementation group by retroviral correction with FANCG resulted in the detection of nine additional pathogenic mutations and two common SNPs.
Direct sequencing of genomic DNA from seven FA-G probands with one mutant allele not detected in the SSCP study and three additional probands assigned to the FA-G complementation group by retroviral correction with FANCG resulted in the detection of nine additional pathogenic mutations and two common SNPs.
Here we report the identification of the gene mutated in group G, FANCG, on the basis of complementation of an FA-G cell line and the presence of pathogenic mutations in four FA-G patients.
