NKTR (NK-tumour recognition protein) is a gene that drives cell growth when it is altered. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Acute myeloid leukaemia.
PPIase that catalyses the cis-trans isomerisation of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides and may therefore assist protein folding. Component of a putative tumour-recognition complex involved in the function of NK cells.
IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (1 activating, 0 loss-of-function), covering Acute Myeloid Leukaemia.
