Disease Linkage
General Disease Association:
Immune disorder and neuronal disorders
Specific Diseases (Non-cancerous):
Transient erythroblastopenia of childhood (TEC); Behcet's disease (BD); B cell deficiency
Comments:
TEC is a major binder of dasatinib, which is used for BCR/ABL-positive CML treatment.
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 human Brain glioblastomas (%CFC= -46, p<0.015). The COSMIC website notes an up-regulated expression score for Tec in diverse human cancers of 293, which is 0.6-fold of the average score of 462 for the human protein kinases. The down-regulated expression score of 23 for this protein kinase in human cancers was 0.4-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: 0.08 % in 25452 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is very similar (+ 10% higher) to 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: 0.41 % in 805 skin cancers tested; 0.39 % in 1093 large intestine cancers tested; 0.18 % in 1991 lung cancers tested.
Frequency of Mutated Sites:
None > 4 in 20,679 cancer specimens
Comments:
Only 2 deletions, 1 insertion, and no complex mutations are noted on the COSMIC website.
