L3MBTL3
L3MBTL3 (Lethal(3)malignant brain tumour-like protein 3) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Breast cancer.
Overview
Is a negative regulator of Notch target genes expression, required for RBPJ-mediated transcriptional repression. It recruits KDM1A to Notch-responsive elements and promotes KDM1A-mediated H3K4me demethylation. Involved in the regulation of ubiquitin-dependent degradation of a set of methylated non-histone proteins, including SOX2, DNMT1 and E2F1.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.54 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.81, genetic association 0.67).

Biology
Is a negative regulator of Notch target genes expression, required for RBPJ-mediated transcriptional repression. It recruits KDM1A to Notch-responsive elements and promotes KDM1A-mediated H3K4me demethylation. Involved in the regulation of ubiquitin-dependent degradation of a set of methylated non-histone proteins, including SOX2, DNMT1 and E2F1. It acts as an adapter recruiting the CRL4-DCAF5 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex to methylated target proteins. Required for normal maturation of myeloid progenitor cells. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 6q23.1 (HGNC).

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.
