FAM135B is a human gene coding for a protein of unknown function.[4] It is well conserved in primates, rodents, zebra fish. It has one paralog, FAM135A.

Gene

FAM135B is located on the long arm of Chromosome 8 in humans on the anti-sense located at 24.23.[4] The following genes are near FAM135B on the chromosome:

Expression

FAM135B is expressed in the brain, ear, eye, pancreas and testis.[5] Within the brain, expression is apparent within the motor nucleus of trigeminal[6] In addition, it is mainly expressed in normal health states, although it has shown moderate expression in glioma, non-neoplasima as well as expression in germ cell tumors.[5]

Interactions

FAM135B has shown to interact with KAT5, a gene that encodes for a histone acetyltransferase[7] through yeast two-hybrid experimentation.

Protein

The protein encoded on FAM135 is 1406 amino acids long. The protein contains a region called DUF676, believed to be a putative serine esterase as well as two protein regions called DUF3657.[4]

Clinical significance

FAM135B has shown to be expressed in individuals with extrapulmonary tuberculosis.[8]
