While there is a slightly higher tumor mutational burden in EPAS1-altered tumors (9.9 vs. 4.9 mut/Mb), they are enriched in and associated with genes promoting immune evasion, including ARID5B, SPINT1, AAK1, CLIC3, SORT1, SASH1, and FGFR3, respectively (q < 0.001). The gene discussed is AAK1; the disease is neoplasm.
