RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: CT43; FATE
Summary: This gene encodes a cancer-testis antigen that is highly expressed in hepatocellular carcinomas and other tumors and weakly expressed in normal tissues except testis. The protein is strongly expressed in spermatogonia, primary spermatocytes, and Sertoli cells in seminiferous tubules. This protein may have a role in the control of early testicular differentiation and cell proliferation. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

What's a GeneRIF?

Study reports that EWSR1-FLI1 directly activates the anomalous expression of FATE1 in Ewing sarcoma. FATE1 is essential for Ewing sarcoma survival through the destabilization of BNIP3L, a poorly characterized BH3-only protein that is toxic to Ewing sarcoma cells.
Title: EWSR1-FLI1 Activation of the Cancer/Testis Antigen FATE1 Promotes Ewing Sarcoma Survival.
In patients with ACC, FATE1 expression in their tumor is inversely correlated with their overall survival. the ER-mitochondria uncoupling activity of FATE1 is harnessed by cancer cells to escape apoptotic death and resist the action of chemotherapeutic drugs.
Title: FATE1 antagonizes calcium- and drug-induced apoptosis by uncoupling ER and mitochondria.
FATE1 is a key survival factor in multiple oncogenic backgrounds. FATE1 prevents the accumulation of the stress-sensing BH3-only protein, BCL-2-Interacting Killer (BIK), thereby permitting viability in the presence of toxic stimuli.
Title: Comprehensive functional characterization of cancer-testis antigens defines obligate participation in multiple hallmarks of cancer.
This study has shown that only 1.4% of infertile men have mutations in the FATE gene, and that some of these mutations do not singly cause infertility.
Title: Mutational analysis of the human FATE gene in 144 infertile men.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
