Abstract Text

We performed exome sequencing to detect somatic mutations in protein-coding regions in seven melanoma cell lines and donor-matched germline cells. All melanoma samples had high numbers of somatic mutations, which showed the hallmark of UV-induced DNA repair. Such a hallmark was absent in tumor sample-specific mutations in two metastases derived from the same individual. Two melanomas with non-canonical BRAF mutations harbored gain-of-function MAP2K1 and MAP2K2 (MEK1 and MEK2, respectively) mutations, resulting in constitutive ERK phosphorylation and higher resistance to MEK inhibitors. Screening a larger cohort of individuals with melanoma revealed the presence of recurring somatic MAP2K1 and MAP2K2 mutations, which occurred at an overall frequency of 8%. Furthermore, missense and nonsense somatic mutations were frequently found in three candidate melanoma genes, FAT4, LRP1B and DSC1.

Filtering

Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
Use simple literal full or partial string matches
Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

Gene	Variant	Impact	Protein Effect	Variant Description	Associated with drug Resistance
MAP2K1	P124S	missense	unknown	MAP2K1 P124S lies within the protein kinase domain of the Map2k1 protein (UniProt.org). P124S results in increased Erk1/2 phosphorylation and confers resistance to Mek and Braf inhibitors (PMID: 19915144, PMID: 22197931) and an Egfr antibody (PMID: 33322618) in culture, but has similar induction of cell proliferation and viability levels to wild-type Map2k1 in culture (PMID: 29533785), and therefore, its effect on Map2k1 protein function is unknown.	Y
MAP2K1	E203K	missense	gain of function	MAP2K1 E203K lies within the protein kinase domain of the Map2k1 protein (UniProt.org). E203K confers a gain of function to the Map2k1 protein as demonstrated by constitutive Erk phosphorylation (PMID: 22197931, PMID: 29483135) and cell transformation in culture (PMID: 22197931), and is associated with drug resistance in the context of BRAF V600E in culture (PMID: 28986383).	Y
MAP2K1	N382H	missense	no effect - predicted	MAP2K1 N382H does not lie within any known functional domains of the Map2k1 protein (UniProt.org). N382H does not induce Erk phosphorylation in cultured cells (PMID: 22197931) and results in slower cell proliferation compared to wild-type Map2k1 in culture (PMID: 36442478), and therefore, is predicted to have no effect on Map2k1 protein function.
BRIP1	S624L	missense	unknown	BRIP1 S624L does not lie within any known functional domains of the Brip1 protein (UniProt.org). S624L has been identified in sequencing studies (PMID: 27978560, PMID: 22810696, PMID: 22197931), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Brip1 protein function is unknown (PubMed, Sep 2024).
