QKI (KH domain-containing RNA-binding protein QKI) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver and a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Breast cancer, Skin cancer, Colorectal cancer and 3 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
RNA reader protein, which recognises and binds specific RNAs, thereby regulating RNA metabolic processes, such as pre-mRNA splicing, circular RNA (circRNA) formation, mRNA export, mRNA stability and/or translation. Involved in various cellular processes, such as mRNA storage into stress granules, apoptosis, lipid deposition, interferon response, glial cell fate and development. Binds to the 5'-NACUAAY-N(1,20)-UAAY-3' RNA core sequence. Acts as a mRNA modification reader that specifically recognises and binds mRNA transcripts modified by internal N(7)-methylguanine (m7G). Promotes the formation of circular RNAs (circRNAs) during the epithelial to mesenchymal transition and in cardiomyocytes: acts by binding to sites flanking circRNA-forming exons. CircRNAs are produced by back-splicing circularisation of pre-mRNAs. Location: Nucleus; Cytoplasm; Cytoplasm, cytosol; Cytoplasm, Stress granule (UniProt). Locus 6q26 (HGNC).
