FBF1 Gene Summary [Human]

Involved in apical junction assembly and establishment of epithelial cell polarity. Acts upstream of or within cilium assembly. Located in centriole; centrosome; and spindle pole. Part of ciliary transition fiber. Colocalizes with apical junction complex and keratin filament. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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 FBF1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
