ASPSCR1 (Tether containing UBX domain for GLUT4) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a fusion partner, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Sarcomas.
Tethering protein that sequesters GLUT4-containing vesicles in the cytoplasm in the absence of insulin. Modulates the amount of GLUT4 that is available at the cell surface. Enhances VCP methylation catalysed by VCPKMT.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.61 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.79, genetic association 0.09, somatic mutation 0.96). In OnCo, 1 product record names it (Cediranib).
In plain words · ASPSCR1 (Tether containing UBX domain for GLUT4) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a fusion partner, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Sarcomas.

No product in this corpus aims at ASPSCR1 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Tumour-specific alteration: 1 of 1 medicines aimed at it name a mutant, fusion, exon or hotspot in their mechanism (Cediranib), an alteration absent from normal cells. HPA ASPSCR1: RNA low tissue specificity; no normal tissue stained high. Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Sarcomas (soft tissue, bone, GIST)); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (Rule 4 of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts.)
