Since our study goal was to identify potential therapeutically relevant events, the novel loss of function mutation in ERRFI1 (E384X) detected in Patient 3's metastatic, recurrent/refractory SIC (Table S1) warranted addi
[Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC3923676 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 16
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Functional
Justification: Oncogenic: The passage discusses a novel loss of function mutation (E384X) in ERRFI1 that is associated with a patient's metastatic tumor, indicating that this somatic variant contributes to tumor development or progression. Functional: The passage mentions nearly complete loss of function of ERRFI1 due to the E384X mutation, suggesting that this variant alters the molecular or biochemical function of the protein.
