Next, the PIP3 phosphatase activity of the tumor-associated N-terminal PTEN mutations was assessed using the S. cerevisiae heterologous reconstitution system. In these experiments, the mutations were tested in a PTEN 1-4
[Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC4398541 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 5
Evidence Type(s): Functional, Oncogenic
Justification: Functional: The passage discusses how the mutations alter the PIP3 phosphatase activity of PTEN, indicating that these variants affect molecular function. Oncogenic: The variants are described as "tumor-associated" and their effects on PTEN activity suggest a contribution to tumor development or progression.
