PPIB peptidylprolyl isomerase B

Gene ID: 5479, updated on 5-May-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: OI9; CYPB; SCYLP; CYP-S1; HEL-S-39

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a cyclosporine-binding protein and is mainly located within the endoplasmic reticulum. It is associated with the secretory pathway and released in biological fluids. This protein can bind to cells derived from T- and B-lymphocytes, and may regulate cyclosporine A-mediated immunosuppression. Variants have been identified in this protein that give rise to recessive forms of osteogenesis imperfecta. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
