Since the 11q13 amplification was found in different cancer types, ANO1, cloned as FLJ10621 initially 28, has been described under other names as well, for example, DOG1 (discovered on GISTs protein 1) 29, ORAOV2 (oral cancer overexpressed 2) 31, and TAOS2 (tumor-amplified and overexpressed sequence 2) 32. This evidence concerns the gene ANO1 and cancer.
