SAFB2

protein-coding

scaffold attachment factor B2, the group of RNA binding motif containing

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene, along with its paralog (scaffold attachment factor B1), is a repressor of estrogen receptor alpha. The encoded protein binds scaffold/matrix attachment region (S/MAR) DNA and is involved in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, differentiation, the stress response, and regulation of immune genes.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_014649.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
