Several proteins identified in KARS interactome (ACLY (ATP citrate lyase) [40], EEF1A1 (elongation factor 1-alpha 1) [41], SAFB (scaffold attachment factor B) [42], SDCBP (syntenin-1) [43], STAT1 (signal transducers and activators of transcription 1) [44], TPM1 (tropomyosin alpha-1 chain) [45] and TRAF4 (TNF receptor-associated factor 4) [46]) were found to be associated with cancer. The gene discussed is EEF1A1; the disease is cancer.
