NCIt definition : DNA fragmentation factor subunit beta (338 aa, 39 kDa) is encoded by the human DFFB
gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of DNA fragmentation and chromosome
condensation during apoptosis.;
NCIt note : DNA fragmentation factor subunit beta (DFFB) is part of DNA fragmentation factor (DFF)
along with DNA fragmentation factor subunit alpha (DFFA). DFFA sequesters and inhibits
the enzymatic activity of DFFB until caspase-3 cleaves DFFA. (EntrezGene);
