Title Fanconi anemia and Aldehyde Degradation Deficiency Syndrome: Metabolism and DNA repair protect the genome and hematopoiesis from endogenous DNA damage.
Journal DNA Repair (Amst)
Abstract We have identified a set of Japanese children with hypoplastic anemia caused by combined defects in aldehyde degrading enzymes ADH5 and ALDH2. Their clinical characteristics overlap with a hereditary DNA repair disorder, Fanconi anemia. Our discovery of this disorder, termed Aldehyde Degradation Deficiency Syndrome (ADDS), reinforces the notion that endogenously generated aldehydes exert genotoxic effects; thus, the coupled actions of metabolism and DNA repair are required to maintain proper hematopoiesis and health.
