Psmb4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables lipopolysaccharide binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of inflammatory response to antigenic stimulus. Part of proteasome core complex. Is expressed in cerebral cortex and embryo. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndrome 3. Orthologous to human PSMB4 (proteasome 20S subunit beta 4).

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 mouse Psmb4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
