Summary
PWWP3B (PWWP domain containing 3B, HGNC:26583) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq22.3, encoding PWWP domain-containing DNA repair factor 3B (Q5H9M0).
This gene encodes a protein which contains a mutated melanoma-associated antigen 1 domain. Proteins which contain mutated antigens are expressed at high levels on certain types of cancers. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.
