FANCB (Fanconi anaemia group B protein) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a DNA repair gene, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
DNA repair protein required for FANCD2 ubiquitination.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.54 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.72, genetic association 0.18, genetic literature 0.83).
In plain words · FANCB (Fanconi anaemia group B protein) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a DNA repair gene, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
