AFF3 ALF transcription elongation factor 3

ENSG00000144218 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

Putative transcription activator that may function in lymphoid development and oncogenesis. Binds, in vitro, to double- stranded DNA.

In 15 of 15 cancers, the evidence for AFF3 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.

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.24679000675678253 (upper bound 0.33149001002311707). 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 AFF3's approved or late-stage drugs in the last three years.

No terminated, withdrawn or suspended trials of AFF3's drugs are registered
