Disease Linkage
General Disease Association:
Infectious disease
Specific Diseases (Non-cancerous):
Ebola virus; Marburg virus
Comments:
TYRO3 has been identified as a cell entry factor for Ebola and Marburg viruses.
Comments:
TYRO3 may also be a potential therapeutic target in breast cancer.
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: Barrett's esophagus epithelial metaplasia (%CFC= -63, p<0.031); Cervical epithelial cancer (%CFC= +86, p<0.048); Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (cRCC) (%CFC= -49, p<0.095); Ovary adenocarcinomas (%CFC= +63, p<0.062); Pituitary adenomas (aldosterone-secreting) (%CFC= +77, p<0.04); and Uterine leiomyomas (%CFC= +125, p<0.054).
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: 0.07 % in 24447 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is only -6 % lower and is very similar to the average rate of 0.075 % calculated for human protein kinases in general.
Frequency of Mutated Sites:
None > 3 in 20,637 cancer specimens
Comments:
Only 4 deletions, and no insertions or complex mutations are noted on the COSMIC website.
