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: LMO7
Gene Name: LMO7
Protein Full Name: LIM domain only protein 7
Alias: F-box only protein 20; FBX20; FBXO20; KIAA0858; LIM domain 7; LIM domain only 7; LOMP
Mass (Da): 192710
Number AA: 1683
UniProt ID: Q8WWI1
Locus ID: 4008
COSMIC ID: LMO7
Gene location on chromosome: 13q22.2
Cancer protein type: UNCLEAR
Effect of cancer mutation on protein: UNCLEAR
Effect of active protein on cancer: UNCLEAR
Number of cancer specimens: 20120
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 1
Normal role description: LMO7 encodes a protein containing a calponin homology (CH) domain; a PDZ domain; and a LIM domain, and it is thought it plays a role in protein-protein interactions.
Commentary on involvement of protein in cancer: Only 1 oral adenocarcinoma & 1 melanoma sample were included in Sanger COSMIC. 1/58 ovarian- & prostate samples were also mutated.
