Specifically, ELF3 was annotated as a cancer gene for rectum adenocarcinoma, colorectal neoplasms, hematologic diseases and breast neoplasms in the database of DriverDB (Cheng et al., 2014), CoReCG (Agarwal et al., 2016), and DDMGD (Bin Raies et al., 2015) respectively. This evidence concerns the gene ELF3 and hematologic disorder.
