Annotated Information
Approved Symbol
CLMAT3
Approved Name
colorectal liver metastasis associated transcript 3
Synonyms
SPARC-AS1
RefSeq(supplied by NCBI)
NR_109873
Characteristics
CLMAT3 is located on human chromosome 14 (chr14:101379770-101381326, hg19) [1].
Expression
CLMAT3 is significantly up-regulated in the cancerous tissues comparing with the normal colorectal tissues, and high CLMAT3 expression strongly correlates with liver metastasis and lymph node metastasis, and shorter median overall survival duration [1].
Function
CLMAT3 over-expression is significantly associated with colorectal liver metastasis and is an independent predictor of poor survival for patients with colorectal cancer, indicating that CLMAT3 may act as an oncogene [1].
Disease
- colorectal cancer [1]
