Cancer Protein Description

This report provides a detailed description of a selected cancer protein with information collected from various sources, including UniProt, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute’s Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), and the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology.


Protein Name: PRUNE
Gene Name: PRUNE
Protein Full Name: Protein prune homolog
Alias: DRES-17; EC 3.6.1.1; HTCD37; TcD37
Mass (Da): 50228
Number AA: 453
UniProt ID: Q86TP1
Locus ID: 58497
COSMIC ID: PRUNE
Gene location on chromosome: 1q21
Number of cancer specimens: 19625
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 0.3
Commentary on involvement of protein in cancer: Phosphodiesterase (PDE) that has higher activity toward cAMP than cGMP, as substrate. Plays a role in cell proliferation, is able to induce cell motility and acts as a negative regulator of NME1.
