Overview

One-paragraph summary of the gene’s role and why it matters in cancer genomics.

Alterations observed in the corpus

  • Mutation classes (missense / truncating / fusion / amplification / deletion) with links to the papers that report them.
  • 17 mutations in 188 LUAD tumours; positive correlation with solid histological subtype (P=2.29e-5) and higher tumour grade (P=0.013); part of Wnt pathway. PMID:18948947
  • Deleted in the copy-number-high (cluster-4, serous-like) endometrial carcinoma subgroup; recently associated with liposomal doxorubicin resistance in serous ovarian cancer PMID:23636398
  • Recurrent single-gene focal deletion target in GBM; identified as a focal deletion locus in TCGA multi-platform GBM analysis (n=543) PMID:24120142

Cancer types (linked)

  • Per cancer type: prevalence, co-mutation patterns, clinical significance.

Co-occurrence and mutual exclusivity

  • Linked partner genes with the relationship and the paper(s) reporting it.

Therapeutic relevance

  • Drugs (linked) targeting this gene or its pathway, with the studies supporting them.

Open questions

  • Conflicts or unresolved findings across papers.
