SGK1 (Serine/threonine-protein kinase Sgk1) is a protein kinase, an enzyme that switches other proteins on by adding phosphate groups. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, an oncogene driver, a tumour suppressor and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Breast cancer, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Renal cell carcinoma and 2 more.
Serine/threonine-protein kinase which is involved in the regulation of a wide variety of ion channels, membrane transporters, cellular enzymes, transcription factors, neuronal excitability, cell growth, proliferation, survival, migration and apoptosis. Plays an important role in cellular stress response. Contributes to regulation of renal Na(+) retention, renal K(+) elimination, salt appetite, gastric acid secretion, intestinal Na(+)/H(+) exchange and nutrient transport, insulin-dependent salt sensitivity of blood pressure, salt sensitivity of peripheral glucose uptake, cardiac repolarisation and memory consolidation.
CIViC holds 4 clinical evidence items and 0 assertions across 2 variants, naming Alpelisib and SGK1-Inh. IntOGen calls it a driver in 6 cohorts (4 activating, 2 loss-of-function), covering Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, NOS, Malignant Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma.

No product in this corpus aims at SGK1 yet. Kinases are switched on by binding ATP inside the cell, so most drugs are small molecules shaped to plug that ATP pocket.
Tumour-specific alteration: the catalogues call it an oncogene driver (IntOGen cohort analysis finds it activated more often than chance) and a tumour suppressor (IntOGen finds it knocked out more often than chance), so the direction differs between cohorts but the alteration is somatic either way; what a medicine would aim at or exploit is the altered form or its loss, absent from normal cells; no corpus medicine is aimed at it yet. HPA SGK1: RNA tissue enhanced (parathyroid gland 946 nTPM); blood lineage group enriched (granulocytes 170 nTPM, monocytes 44 nTPM); high antibody staining in 16 normal tissues; highest cancer staining pancreatic cancer (3 of 11 high). Distribution: 3 cancer families in the corpus carry a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Breast cancer (all types), Lymphoma, Renal cell carcinoma); Open Targets associates it with 1 specific cancer type at or above 0.5 (diffuse large B-cell lymphoma).
