SNW1
SNW1 (SNW domain-containing protein 1) 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.
Overview
Involved in pre-mRNA splicing as component of the spliceosome. As a component of the minor spliceosome, involved in the splicing of U12-type introns in pre-mRNAs. Required for the specific splicing of CDKN1A pre-mRNA; the function probably involves the recruitment of U2AF2 to the mRNA.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.59 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.39, affected pathway 0.95, genetic association 0.03).

- 1 · What it is
SNW1 (SNW domain-containing protein 1) 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.
- 2 · What goes wrong in cancer
Involved in pre-mRNA splicing as component of the spliceosome. As a component of the minor spliceosome, involved in the splicing of U12-type introns in pre-mRNAs.
- 3 · How drugs use it
No product in this corpus aims at SNW1 yet. Transcription factors have no pocket to plug, so drugs either degrade them or block the partner protein they need to dock on DNA.

Biology
Involved in pre-mRNA splicing as component of the spliceosome. As a component of the minor spliceosome, involved in the splicing of U12-type introns in pre-mRNAs. Required for the specific splicing of CDKN1A pre-mRNA; the function probably involves the recruitment of U2AF2 to the mRNA. May recruit PPIL1 to the spliceosome. May be involved in cyclin-D1/CCND1 mRNA stability through the SNARP complex which associates with both the 3'end of the CCND1 gene and its mRNA. Involved in transcriptional regulation. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 14q24.3 (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.
