MUC17 and cancer: In the present paper, our team analyzed the somatically mutated genes from the ICGC (International Cancer Genome Consortium) and TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) datasets and discovered that 15 frequent gene mutations occurred in both cohorts, including ZFHX4, MUC16, FLG, TP53, LRP1B, TTN, SYNE1, RYR2, CSMD3, USH2A, MUC17, DNAH5, FAM135B, COL11A1, and RYR3. Interestingly, only mutated TTN was related to higher TMB and prognostic outcomes among the 15 mutated genes.
