DNAJC12 is a co-chaperone gene that is strongly expressed in oestrogen receptor-positive (luminal) breast cancers and is used as a luminal marker.
UniProt describes DNAJC12 as an Hsp40 co-chaperone that helps fold the aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. In breast cancer it is an oestrogen-responsive gene that separates luminal from basal-like tumours in expression data, and one of the genes whose protein closely follows its transcript.
In plain words · DNAJC12 is a co-chaperone gene that is strongly expressed in oestrogen receptor-positive (luminal) breast cancers and is used as a luminal marker.
