Commentary on involvement of protein in cancer: This gene was reported to be deleted, mutated, or overexpressed in 'several kinds' of cancers (NCIB Gene). It's upregulated in breast & prostate cancer cells and "defected" in liver cancer (UniProt), but no additional information re: which type of defect/mutation was given...
