THRAP3 (Thyroid hormone receptor-associated protein 3) 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 Acute myeloid leukaemia.
Involved in pre-mRNA splicing. Remains associated with spliced mRNA after splicing which probably involves interactions with the exon junction complex (EJC). Can trigger mRNA decay which seems to be independent of nonsense-mediated decay involving premature stop codons (PTC) recognition.
IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (0 activating, 1 loss-of-function), covering Acute Myeloid Leukaemia.

No product in this corpus aims at THRAP3 yet. Because the protein is lost rather than overactive, drugs either restore its function or exploit the weakness its loss leaves (synthetic lethality).
First described 1999. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Ito et al, Mol. Cell, 1999, "Identity between TRAP and SMCC complexes indicates novel pathways for the function of nuclear receptors and diverse mammalian activators". Source.

Involved in pre-mRNA splicing. Remains associated with spliced mRNA after splicing which probably involves interactions with the exon junction complex (EJC). Can trigger mRNA decay which seems to be independent of nonsense-mediated decay involving premature stop codons (PTC) recognition. May be involved in nuclear mRNA decay. Involved in regulation of signal-induced alternative splicing. During splicing of PTPRC/CD45 is proposed to sequester phosphorylated SFPQ from PTPRC/CD45 pre-mRNA in resting T-cells. Location: Nucleus; Nucleus, nucleoplasm; Nucleus speckle (UniProt). Locus 1p34.3 (HGNC).
