A novel YAP1/SLC35B4 axis promotes gastric cancer (GC) development and progression, and this axis could be a potential candidate for prognosis and therapeutics in GC.
Title: A novel YAP1/SLC35B4 regulatory axis contributes to proliferation and progression of gastric carcinoma.
SLC35B4 single nucleotide polymorphism rs1646724 was associated with recurrence in patients with localized disease and survival in patients with advanced prostate cancer.
Title: A common regulatory variant in SLC35B4 influences the recurrence and survival of prostate cancer.
Our data showed that knock-out of the SLC35B4 gene does not affect major UDP-Xyl- and UDP-GlcNAc-dependent glycosylation pathways.
Title: Lysine at position 329 within a C-terminal dilysine motif is crucial for the ER localization of human SLC35B4.
Glucose levels activate SLC35B4 expression. This triggers a downstream effect via Hsp60 and other proteins. We hypothesize that the downstream effect on the proteins is mediated via altering the glycosylation pattern inside liver cells

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.
