Lymphocyte antigen 6E is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the ''LY6E''
gene.
Increased expression of ''Ly6E'' is associated with poor survival outcome in multiple
malignancies as determined by a survey of more than 130 published clinical studies of
gene expression
Gene expression is the process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product that enables it to produce end products, protein or non-coding RNA, and ultimately affect a phenotype, as the final effect. The ...
studies on
cancer tissue samples and adjacent normal tissues. Ly6E is associated with
drug resistance and tumor immune escape in
breast cancer.
Further research is required to validate Ly6E for translation research
