KIF1B kinesin family member 1B

ENSG00000054523 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

Has a plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity and functions as a motor for transport of vesicles and organelles along microtubules. .

In 11 of 11 cancers, the evidence for KIF1B comes mainly from inherited variants

Each row is a cancer, strongest overall evidence first. The two dots show how strong the inherited (germline) and tumour-mutation (somatic) evidence is; the line between them is the gap.

Scores run from 0 (no evidence) to 1 (strongest). A missing dot at 0 means Open Targets holds no evidence of that kind. Source: Open Targets Platform, fetched live.

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.3141700029373169 (upper bound 0.3802199959754944). Low values mean loss of function is poorly tolerated, a safety flag for inhibition.

Who runs trials of these drugs
