Description

ABTB3 (ankyrin repeat and BTB domain containing 3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1q31.1. The encoded protein contains an N-terminal BTB/POZ domain and multiple ankyrin repeats, suggesting a role in protein-protein interactions and transcriptional regulation. Expression data indicate broad tissue distribution with highest levels in the brain and testis. The function of ABTB3 is not fully characterized, but it may be involved in developmental processes and cellular signaling.

Protein Summary

The ABTB3 protein (UniProt Q8N6T3) is 532 amino acids long and contains a BTB/POZ domain at the N-terminus followed by three ankyrin repeats. The BTB domain is involved in transcriptional regulation and protein dimerization, while ankyrin repeats mediate protein-protein interactions. The protein is predicted to localize to the nucleus and cytoplasm. Its precise biological function remains under investigation.
