EPS15 (Epidermal growth factor receptor substrate 15) is a gene that drives cell growth when it is altered. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver and a fusion partner, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Prostate cancer, Breast cancer, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 2 more.
Involved in cell growth regulation. May be involved in the regulation of mitogenic signals and control of cell proliferation. Involved in the internalisation of ligand-inducible receptors of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) type, in particular EGFR.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.63 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.35, genetic association 0.00, somatic mutation 0.82). IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (1 activating, 0 loss-of-function), covering Prostate Adenocarcinoma.

Involved in cell growth regulation. May be involved in the regulation of mitogenic signals and control of cell proliferation. Involved in the internalisation of ligand-inducible receptors of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) type, in particular EGFR. Plays a role in the assembly of clathrin-coated pits (CCPs). Acts as a clathrin adapter required for post-Golgi trafficking. Seems to be involved in CCPs maturation including invagination or budding. Location: Cytoplasm; Cell membrane; Membrane, clathrin-coated pit; Early endosome membrane (UniProt). Locus 1p32.3 (HGNC).
