Gene Expression in Cancers:
TranscriptoNET (www.transcriptonet.ca) analysis with mRNA expression data retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, which was normalized against 60 abundantly and commonly found proteins, indicated altered expression for this protein kinase as shown here as the percent change from normal tissue controls (%CFC) as supported with the Student T-test in the following types of human cancers: Bladder carcinomas (%CFC= +86, p<0.0001); Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (cRCC) stage I (%CFC= -72, p<0.0001); Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (cRCC) stage I (%CFC= -72, p<0.0001); Malignant pleural mesotheliomas (MPM) tumours (%CFC= +60, p<0.004); Prostate cancer - metastatic (%CFC= +45, p<0.0001); Skin squamous cell carcinomas (%CFC= +108, p<0.004); Uterine leiomyomas (%CFC= +313, p<0.004); and Uterine leiomyosarcomas (%CFC= +200, p<0.026). The COSMIC website notes an up-regulated expression score for MARK3 in diverse human cancers of 636, which is 1.4-fold of the average score of 462 for the human protein kinases. The down-regulated expression score of 423 for this protein kinase in human cancers was 7.1-fold of the average score of 60 for the human protein kinases.
Mutagenesis Experiments:
Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice have not yet revealed a role for this protein kinase in mouse cancer oncogenesis. A T211A substitution in MARK3 can reduce phosphorylation and activation by LKB1.
Mutation Rate in All Cancers:
Percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.05 % in 24751 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is only -28 % lower than the average rate of 0.075 % calculated for human protein kinases in general.
Mutation Rate in Specific Cancers:
Highest percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.32 % in 603 endometrium cancers tested; 0.25 % in 1270 large intestine cancers tested; 0.22 % in 589 stomach cancers tested; 0.19 % in 864 skin cancers tested; 0.13 % in 710 oesophagus cancers tested; 0.08 % in 1634 lung cancers tested; 0.05 % in 273 cervix cancers tested; 0.03 % in 833 ovary cancers tested; 0.03 % in 441 autonomic ganglia cancers tested; 0.03 % in 1512 liver cancers tested; 0.03 % in 1459 pancreas cancers tested; 0.02 % in 548 urinary tract cancers tested; 0.02 % in 2082 central nervous system cancers tested; 0.02 % in 1316 breast cancers tested; 0.02 % in 1276 kidney cancers tested; 0.01 % in 958 upper aerodigestive tract cancers tested; 0.01 % in 881 prostate cancers tested.
Frequency of Mutated Sites:
Most frequent mutations with the number of reports indicated in brackets: E120K (8).
Comments:
Only 7 deletion, 2 insertions and no complex mutations are noted on the COSMIC website.
