DNA repair protein that may operate in a postreplication repair or a cell cycle checkpoint function. May be implicated in interstrand DNA cross-link repair and in the maintenance of normal chromosome stability. Upon IFNG induction, may facilitate STAT1 activation by recruiting STAT1 to IFNGR1. Belongs to the multisubunit FA complex composed of FANCA, FANCB, FANCC, FANCE, FANCF, FANCG, FANCL/PHF9 and FANCM. This complex may also include HSP70. The complex is not found in FA patients. Interacts with ZBTB32. Upon IFNG induction, interacts with STAT1. Interacts with CDK1. Interacts with EIF2AK2; interaction between FA variants and EIF2AK2 may lead to augmented EIF2AK2 activation and cell death. The major form is nuclear. The minor form is cytoplasmic. Ubiquitous. Expression increases during S phase, is maximal at the G2/M transition, and declines during M phase (at protein level). The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
