In response to DNA damage or replication fork stress, the Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway is activated, leading to monoubiquitination of FancD2 and FancI and their co-localization in foci. Here we show that, in the chicken DT40 cell system, multiple alanine-substitution mutations in 6 conserved and clustered S/TQ motifs of FancI largely abrogate monoubiquitination as well as focus formation of both FancI and FancD2, resulting in loss of DNA repair function. Conversely, FancI carrying phospho-mimic mutations on the same 6 residues induces constitutive monoubiquitination and focus formation of FancI and FancD2, and protects against cell killing and chromosome breakage by DNA interstrand crosslinking agents. We propose that the multiple phosphorylation of FancI serves as a molecular switch in activation of the FA pathway. Mutational analysis of putative phosphorylation sites in human FANCI indicates that this switch is evolutionarily conserved.
