CDKN2C cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2C

ENSG00000123080 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

Interacts strongly with CDK6, weakly with CDK4. Inhibits cell growth and proliferation with a correlated dependence on endogenous retinoblastoma protein RB.

In 13 of 15 cancers, the evidence for CDKN2C comes mainly from mutations found in tumours

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.

Database Ubiquitination

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.4538699984550476 (upper bound 0.9543200135231018). Low values mean loss of function is poorly tolerated, a safety flag for inhibition.

Who runs trials of these drugs

No named investigators on registry trials of CDKN2C's approved or late-stage drugs in the last three years.

No terminated, withdrawn or suspended trials of CDKN2C's drugs are registered
