*

Sequence alterations were found in BRCA2 in one FA-B cell line (HSC230), but not in another (EUFA178). The status of BRCA2 as a disease gene for complementation group B remains to be assessed

BRCA2 and FANCJ also may function independently of the FA pathway rather than being an integrated part of it23 

Mislabeled as EUFA121 in Table 1 of De Winter et al.10
