Cd59b Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable complement binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of activation of membrane attack complex. Located in cell surface and plasma membrane. Is expressed in blood; heart; liver; lung; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal carcinoma and ovarian cancer. Orthologous to human CD59 (CD59 molecule (CD59 blood group)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Cd59b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
