PTPN14 (Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 14) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Basal cell carcinoma.
Protein tyrosine phosphatase which may play a role in the regulation of lymphangiogenesis, cell-cell adhesion, cell-matrix adhesion, cell migration, cell growth and also regulates TGF-beta gene expression, thereby modulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Mediates beta-catenin dephosphorylation at adhesion junctions. Acts as a negative regulator of the oncogenic property of YAP, a downstream target of the hippo pathway, in a cell density-dependent manner.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.54 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.94, animal model 0.34, genetic association 0.60, somatic mutation 0.61). IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (0 activating, 1 loss-of-function), covering Basal Cell Carcinoma.

No product in this corpus aims at PTPN14 yet. Because the protein is lost rather than overactive, drugs either restore its function or exploit the weakness its loss leaves (synthetic lethality).
