Ontology Term : Pfam:PF18081 Fanconi anemia-associated nuclease SAP domain EMBL-EBI

Description  This domain is found in Fanconi-anemia-associated nuclease 1 (FAN1) present in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. FAN1 is a nuclease associated with Fanconi anemia (FA), an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by defects in FA genes responsible for processing DNA inter-strand cross-links (ICLs). The domain, known as the SAP domain, helps to augment the overall protein DNA interaction by interacting with the 3' and 5' ends of the template strand. Support of the pre-nick segment binding is crucial as multiple mutations in this domain resulted in hypersensitivity to a cross-linking agent in the SAP domain of Caenorhabditis elegans' FAN1. The helix-hairpin-helix of the SAP recognize three consecutive phosphate groups (C19, A20 and A21) at the 3' end of the template via the basic residues K116, K135 and K117 [1].
