NABP2 Gene Summary [Human]

Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-binding proteins, such as OBFC2B, are ubiquitous and essential for a variety of DNA metabolic processes, including replication, recombination, and detection and repair of damage (Richard et al., 2008 [PubMed 18449195]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2008]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human NABP2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • OB-fold nucleic acid binding domain
  • single-stranded DNA binding
  • enzyme binding
  • protein binding
  • sequence-specific DNA binding
  • telomeric DNA binding
  • oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding fold of replication protein A and class 2b aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases
