Cancer Protein Description

This report provides a detailed description of a selected cancer protein with information collected from various sources, including UniProt, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute’s Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), and the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology.


Protein Name: Cdc25C
Gene Name: CDC25C
Protein Full Name: M-phase inducer phosphatase 3
Alias: CDC25; CDC25M1; Cell division cycle 25 C; EC 3.1.3.48; M-phase inducer phosphatase 3; MPI1B; MPIP3
Mass (Da): 53365
Number AA: 473
UniProt ID: P30307
Locus ID: 995
COSMIC ID: CDC25C
Gene location on chromosome: 5q31.2
Cancer protein type: TSP
Effect of cancer mutation on protein: UNCLEAR

Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 0.37
Normal role description: CDC25C is a protein-dual specificity phosphatase. It is required for progression of cell cycle through G2 phase. Experiments with mutant CDC25C proteins create cells in G2 arrest. Therefore it appears that mutations causing loss of function would inhibit cancer progression but this has yet to be established
