How the counts split by source
Stats by Source

Total = all mutations for this gene across every source.

Cell line = COSMIC Cell Lines Project + DepMap + PubMed.

Tissue = COSMIC primary-tissue (patient tumour) samples.

Total can exceed cell line + tissue: COSMIC tissue-derived models sit only in global, and a peptide can be shared across both.

Function

EXT1 · Exostosin glycosyltransferase 1

This gene encodes an endoplasmic reticulum-resident type II transmembrane glycosyltransferase involved in the chain elongation step of heparan sulfate biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene cause the type I form of multiple exostoses. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Isoforms & Proteins

1 transcript · UniProt mapping is sequence-verified (AA-safe)

About the isoform mapping
Isoforms & Proteins

Each Ensembl transcript (ENST) this gene is mutated on, with its matched UniProt accession.

The mapping is sequence-verified: the UniProt sequence is identical to the transcript translation, so amino-acid positions line up exactly. A * marks an unreviewed (TrEMBL) entry.

Counts are mutations and unique mutant peptides on each transcript.

Recurrent Mutations

All 283 amino-acid changes on canonical ENST00000378204 · needle height = samples · drag the mini-map to zoom

What this lollipop shows
Recurrent Mutations

A lollipop / needle plot – the standard way to show recurrent mutations along a protein (as used by cBioPortal and MutationMapper).

X-axis = amino-acid position in the protein.

Needle height & head size = how often that exact amino-acid change was observed (its recurrence). Tall/large heads are mutational hotspots.

The most recurrent changes are labelled; hover any needle for the change, position and counts.

Mutation frequency across cancer types

% of samples with a missense/complex mutation in EXT1 · cell line vs tissue

How this frequency is counted
Cancer-type mutation frequency

For each cancer type, the fraction of samples that carry at least one missense/complex mutation anywhere in EXT1 – counted as distinct samples (a sample counts once no matter how many mutations it has).

Split into cell line and tissue; each cell shows mutated / total and the percentage. Cohorts with <20 samples are omitted. Ordered by combined frequency.

Mutation counts by tissue
Mutation Distribution

How many mutations in EXT1 were found in each tissue, across the whole database.

Each bar is a tissue (cell-line and tissue names are merged to the standard tissue), split into cell line and tissue (patient tumour) contributions.

This shows the cancer-context where this gene is recurrently altered.

About the expression data
GTEx Expression

Median gene expression (TPM) in normal, non-cancer human tissues from the GTEx project.

Useful for judging tumour specificity – a strong neoantigen target ideally comes from a gene with low expression in healthy tissues.
