SPSB3

protein-coding

splA/ryanodine receptor domain and SOCS box containing 3

Gene summary

Enables ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cGAS/STING signaling pathway; negative regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition; and protein K48-linked ubiquitination. Part of Cul5-RING ubiquitin ligase complex. Is active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_080861.4. 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.
