Fanconi Anaemia (FA) is a cancer predisposition disorder. In response to DNA damage, the FA core complex monoubiquitinates the downatream FANCD2 protein. The protein FANCE has an important role in DNA repair as it is the FANCD2-binding protein in the FA core complex so it represents the link between the FA core complex and FANCD2 [1]. The sequence shown is the C terminal domain of the protein which consists predominantly of helices and does not contain any beta-strand. The fold of the polypeptide is a continuous right-handed solenoidal pattern from the N terminal to the C terminal end [1].
