FMN1
FMN1 (Formin-1) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
Overview
Plays a role in the formation of adherens junction and the polymerisation of linear actin cables.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.63 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.42, animal model 0.65, genetic association 0.81).
- Target · the protein and the cell it sits on
- Drug · antibody, small molecule, cell or radioligand
- Effect · signal, damage or kill
In plain words · FMN1 (Formin-1) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
- 1 · What it is
FMN1 (Formin-1) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
- 2 · What goes wrong in cancer
Plays a role in the formation of adherens junction and the polymerisation of linear actin cables. Location: Nucleus; Cytoplasm; Cell junction, adherens junction; Cell membrane (UniProt).
- 3 · How drugs use it
No product in this corpus aims at FMN1 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.

Notes
top- 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: none stated by the sources. Evidence tier "association-only" is the strongest of those signals.
- Prevalence not recorded: none of the sources gives a positivity rate.
