## TL;DR

PXDNL (Probable oxidoreductase PXDNL) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Non-small-cell lung cancer.

## Summary

Probable oxidoreductase. Lacks peroxidase activity. Inhibits the peroxidase activity of PXDN through its interaction.

CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant, naming Pembrolizumab.

- Also known as: peroxidasin like; Probable oxidoreductase PXDNL; FLJ25471; PMR1
- Tags: cancer-genes-wave
- Symbol: PXDNL
- Class: enzyme
- Biology: Probable oxidoreductase. Lacks peroxidase activity. Inhibits the peroxidase activity of PXDN through its interaction. Endonuclease selectively degrading some target mRNAs while they are engaged by translating ribosomes, among which albumin and beta-globin mRNAs.

- Where found: Non-small-cell lung cancer: CIViC evidence names this disease

## Notes

- Written by scripts/fetch-cancer-genes.ts from CIViC, Open Targets, IntOGen, HGNC and UniProt; the function text is UniProt's, condensed and in UK spelling. Roles: CIViC lists 1 therapies; CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence items on its variants. Evidence tier "clinical-evidence" is the strongest of those signals.
- Prevalence not recorded: none of the sources gives a positivity rate.
