Disease Linkage
Gene Expression in Cancers:
The COSMIC website notes an up-regulated expression score for TAF1L in diverse human cancers of 342, which is 0.7-fold of the average score of 462 for the human protein kinases. The down-regulated expression score of 17 for this protein kinase in human cancers was 0.3-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: 0.12 % in 24909 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is 1.64-fold higher than the average rate of 0.075 % calculated for human protein kinases in general.
Mutation Rate in Specific Cancers:
Highest percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.55 % in 864 skin cancers tested; 0.51 % in 1346 large intestine cancers tested; 0.35 % in 1684 lung cancers tested; 0.29 % in 603 endometrium cancers tested; 0.24 % in 589 stomach cancers tested; 0.18 % in 273 cervix cancers tested; 0.1 % in 710 oesophagus cancers tested; 0.1 % in 1512 liver cancers tested; 0.1 % in 1372 breast cancers tested; 0.08 % in 65 Meninges cancers tested; 0.08 % in 548 urinary tract cancers tested; 0.07 % in 1276 kidney cancers tested; 0.06 % in 881 prostate cancers tested; 0.06 % in 2082 central nervous system cancers tested; 0.06 % in 1459 pancreas cancers tested; 0.05 % in 833 ovary cancers tested; 0.04 % in 127 biliary tract cancers tested.
Frequency of Mutated Sites:
Most frequent mutations with the number of reports indicated in brackets: R783C (6); R588Q (5); P553S (4); R685C (3); R636H (3); R888C (3).
Comments:
Over 20 deletion mutations (11 at K665fs*4), 4 insertion mutations (2 at A666fs*38), and 6 complex mutations are noted on the COSMIC website.
