Disease Linkage
General Disease Association:
Cancer
Specific Cancer Types:
Neuroblastomas (NB); Melanomas
Comments:
Advanced-stage neuroblastoma and tumour-derived cell contain a deletion of 1 allele of the gene. This gene was shown to be deleted or altered frequently in neuroblastoma. PITSLRE levels were also reported to be depressed in several cancer cell lines as well as in four malignant melanoma specimens.
Gene Expression in Cancers:
TranscriptoNET (www.transcriptonet.ca) analysis with mRNA expression data retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, which was normalized against 60 abundantly and commonly found proteins, indicated altered expression for this protein kinase as shown here as the percent change from normal tissue controls (%CFC) as supported with the Student T-test in the following types of human cancers: Bladder carcinomas (%CFC= +59, p<0.0002); Breast epithelial cell carcinomas (%CFC= +71, p<0.026); and Large B-cell lymphomas (%CFC= +59, p<0.097). The COSMIC website notes an up-regulated expression score for PITSLRE in diverse human cancers of 353, which is 0.8-fold of the average score of 462 for the human protein kinases. The down-regulated expression score of 153 for this protein kinase in human cancers was 2.6-fold of the average score of 60 for the human protein kinases.
Mutagenesis Experiments:
Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice have not yet revealed a role for this protein kinase in mouse cancer oncogenesis.
Mutation Rate in All Cancers:
Percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.04 % in 24447 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is -52 % lower than the average rate of 0.075 % calculated for human protein kinases in general. Such a low frequency of mutation in human cancers is consistent with this protein kinase playing a role as a tumour requiring protein (TRP).
Mutation Rate in Specific Cancers:
Highest percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.19 % in 603 endometrium cancers tested; 0.13 % in 1240 large intestine cancers tested; 0.1 % in 864 skin cancers tested; 0.09 % in 710 oesophagus cancers tested; 0.07 % in 548 urinary tract cancers tested; 0.07 % in 1300 breast cancers tested; 0.06 % in 1634 lung cancers tested; 0.05 % in 555 stomach cancers tested; 0.04 % in 1459 pancreas cancers tested; 0.03 % in 942 upper aerodigestive tract cancers tested; 0.03 % in 1512 liver cancers tested; 0.02 % in 558 thyroid cancers tested; 0.02 % in 1982 haematopoietic and lymphoid cancers tested; 0.01 % in 1253 kidney cancers tested.
Frequency of Mutated Sites:
Most frequent mutations with the number of reports indicated in brackets: D643E (8).
Comments:
Only 9 deletions (7 at E324_E326delEEE), and no insertions or no complex mutations are noted on the COSMIC website.
