NCIt definition : Human FANCD2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 3p26 and is approximately
76 kb in length. This allele, which encodes Fanconi anemia group D2 protein, plays
a role in the mediation of homolog pairing in meiosis, cell cycle checkpoint regulation
and the modulation of DNA repair. Mutation of the gene is associated with Fanconi
anemia.;
