Fanca Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to be involved in regulation of regulatory T cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including gonad development; regulation of CD40 signaling pathway; and regulation of germ cell proliferation. Predicted to be located in chromatin and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of Fanconi anaemia nuclear complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Fanconi anemia (multiple); cervical cancer; esophagus squamous cell carcinoma; ovarian disease (multiple); and skin melanoma. Orthologous to human FANCA (FA complementation group A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Fanca often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
