Most renal cancers showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic and/or nuclear staining. A few cases of colorectal and ovarian cancers displayed moderate cytoplasmic staining. One case of hepatocellular carcinoma was strongly stained. Remaining malignant cells along with stromal cells were mainly negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
CEP41 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
DKFZp762H1311, FLJ22445, JBTS15, TSGA14
Description
Centrosomal protein 41kDa (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a centrosomal and microtubule-binding protein which is predicted to have two coiled-coil domains and a rhodanese domain. In human retinal pigment epithelial cells the protein localized to centrioles and cilia. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Joubert Syndrome 15; an autosomal recessive ciliopathy and neurological disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
