PBLD (Phenazine biosynthesis-like domain-containing protein) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Hepatocellular carcinoma.
Functions as a positive regulator of the antiviral immune response by modulating innate immunity and viral replication by enhancing type I interferon (IFN-I) response. PBLD enhances IFN-I signalling via multiple pathways. Promotes IRF3-mediated IFN-I production and apoptosis, thereby inhibiting viral replication.
CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant.

No product in this corpus aims at PBLD yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Specificity not established: no corpus medicine is aimed at it and the catalogues give it only the role biomarker; HPA finds the RNA group enriched, which says where the protein sits but not whether the tumour differs from normal tissue. HPA PBLD: RNA group enriched (intestine 161 nTPM, kidney 252 nTPM, liver 313 nTPM); high antibody staining in 4 normal tissues; highest cancer staining renal cancer (3 of 12 high). Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Hepatocellular carcinoma); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (No rule of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts fired.)

Functions as a positive regulator of the antiviral immune response by modulating innate immunity and viral replication by enhancing type I interferon (IFN-I) response. PBLD enhances IFN-I signalling via multiple pathways. Promotes IRF3-mediated IFN-I production and apoptosis, thereby inhibiting viral replication. Up-regulates IFN-I response by activating the NF-kappaB signalling pathway, potentially through inhibition of TRIM21-mediated degradation of phosphorylated IKKbeta, thereby sustaining NF-kappaB activation to counteract viral infection. Additionally, promotes the p53-USP4-MAVS signalling axis by stabilising MAVS through USP4-mediated deubiquitination, thereby enhancing the IFN-I response against RNA virus infection. Acts as a tumour suppressor, regulating development of various cancers. Locus 10q21.3 (HGNC).
RNA: group enriched (intestine 161 nTPM, kidney 252 nTPM, liver 313 nTPM), detected in all normal tissues.
Medium: Appendix, Colon, Liver, Rectum, Small intestine, Stomach.
Medium only: cervical cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer.
