Fancb Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; positive regulation of double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; and replication-born double-strand break repair via sister chromatid exchange. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including bone marrow development; cellular response to camptothecin; and hematopoietic stem cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be part of Fanconi anaemia nuclear complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Fanconi anemia complementation group B and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human FANCB (FA complementation group B).

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