Top2b Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables ribonucleoprotein complex binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to ATP; cellular response to hydrogen peroxide; and positive regulation of double-strand break repair via nonhomologous end joining. Predicted to be located in cytosol; heterochromatin; and nuclear lumen. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human TOP2B (DNA topoisomerase II beta).

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 Top2b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
