RRM2B (Ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase subunit M2 B) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a DNA repair gene, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Leukaemia, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Breast cancer and 5 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Plays a pivotal role in cell survival by repairing damaged DNA in a p53/TP53-dependent manner. Supplies deoxyribonucleotides for DNA repair in cells arrested at G1 or G2. Contains an iron-tyrosyl free radical centre required for catalysis. Forms an active ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) complex with RRM1 which is expressed both in resting and proliferating cells in response to DNA damage. Location: Cytoplasm; Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 8q22.3 (HGNC).
