MYLKP1 and cancer: We and others have demonstrated that the pseudogene, MYLKP1, located on 3p12.3 (HGNC ID:7591) representing an intrachromosomal duplication of exons 13 to 17 of MYLK copied from 3q21.1 (HGNC ID:7590) [19, 30], is selectively expressed in cancer, regulates MLCK levels, and increases cancer cell proliferation in vitro [15, 22].
