NCIt synonyms : PP32R1; ANP32C wt Allele; ANP32C; Acidic (Leucine-Rich) Nuclear Phosphoprotein 32 Family, Member C Gene; Acidic Leucine-Rich Nuclear Phosphoprotein 32 Family, Member C Gene; pp32 Related 1 Gene; Acidic Nuclear Phosphoprotein 32 Family Member C, Pseudogene wt Allele; Acidic Nuclear Phosphoprotein 32 Family Member C Gene; Acidic (Leucine-Rich) Nuclear Phosphoprotein 32 Family Member C Gene;
NCIt definition : Human ANP32CP wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 4q32.3 and is approximately
1 kb in length. This allele, which encodes putative uncharacterized protein ANP32CP,
may play a role in tumorigenesis for several cancers.;
NCIt note : ANP32C lacks introns and is a tumor suppressor that can inhibit several types of cancers,
including prostate and breast cancers. Amino acids 150-174 of the gene product are
responsible for its tumor suppressor function and are a region of divergence with
PP32R1. Alternative use of PP32, PP32R1, and PP32R2 may modulate the oncogenic potential
of human prostate cancer.; HGNC and EntrezGene catagorize this gene as a pseudogene; however, a putative protein
product does exist in UniProt.;
