Family with sequence similarity 86 member B2 (FAM86B2)

Target
FAM86B2
Molecular classification
Enzyme (predicted protein-lysine N-methyltransferase), Protein-coding gene
01

Overview

Family with sequence similarity 86 member B2 (FAM86B2) is a human gene encoding a protein predicted to possess N-methyltransferase activity, possibly involved in protein lysine methylation and regulation of translation. Functional characterization is limited: evidence for direct biological function, disease association, or utility as a therapeutic target or biomarker is currently lacking. FAM86B2 is subject to post-translational modification including phosphorylation and ubiquitination. A variant at S33 (S33R) has been reported in uterine cancer samples, but its clinical significance remains unclear. Its closest annotated paralog is EEF2KMT, another methyltransferase active in translation-related protein modification[2][3][4][5].
