KLF5 (Krueppel-like factor 5) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, a tumour suppressor and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Bladder & urothelial cancer, Cervical cancer, Colorectal cancer and 1 more.
