type of UFB forms between a pair of FANCD2/I foci that already exist on the sister-chromatids
in late S-phase/G2.These are rarely detected in untreated cells. However, they can be induced
by challenging cells with low doses of aphidicolin, an agent frequently used to induce
chromosome fragility. FA-associated UFBs are not found at centromeres, but instead localize …
