Few cases of malignant lymphomas, gliomas, colorectal, prostate, ovarian and endometrial cancers showed moderate to strong positivity.Other cancer tissues were weakly stained or negative.
The protein encoded by this gene is similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae LYS5, which is required for the activation of the alpha-aminoadipate dehydrogenase in the biosynthetic pathway of lysine. Yeast alpha-aminoadipate dehydrogenase converts alpha-biosynthetic-aminoadipate semialdehyde to alpha-aminoadipate. It has been suggested that defects in the human gene result in pipecolic acidemia.
