Summary
FNTB (farnesyltransferase, CAAX box, subunit beta, HGNC:3785) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 14q23.3, encoding Protein farnesyltransferase subunit beta (P49356). Essential subunit of the farnesyltransferase complex. In precision oncology, FNTB RS11623866 is associated with resistance to Lonafarnib in Ovarian Cancer (CIViC Level B). It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 90.0% of cell lines).
Enables acetyltransferase activator activity; enzyme binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Contributes to protein farnesyltransferase activity. Involved in protein farnesylation and regulation of microtubule-based movement. Part of microtubule associated complex and protein farnesyltransferase complex. Implicated in anxiety disorder.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 104 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
