Phb Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables transcription corepressor activity. Involved in several processes, including modulation by host of viral RNA genome replication; positive regulation of immunoglobulin production; and positive regulation of non-canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within DNA biosynthetic process and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in several cellular components, including cell surface; mitochondrial inner membrane; and nucleus. Part of mitochondrial prohibitin complex. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer; cortical plate; ectoplacental cone; embryo; and extraembryonic ectoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast cancer and sporadic breast cancer. Orthologous to human PHB1 (prohibitin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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