The Fanconi anemia and BRCA networks are considered interconnected, as BRCA2 gene defects have been discovered in individuals with Fanconi anemia subtype D1. Here we show that a defect in the BRCA2- interacting protein PALB2 is associated with Fanconi anemia in an individual with a new subtype. PALB2- deficient cells showed hypersensitivity to cross- linking agents and lacked chromatin- bound BRCA2; these defects were corrected upon ectopic expression of PALB2 or by spontaneous reversion.
