GNPNAT1 promotes the stemness of breast cancer and serves as a potential prognostic biomarker.

ABSTRACT: Glucosamine‑phosphate N‑acetyltransferase 1 (GNPNAT1) is a member of the acetyltransferase superfamily, related to general control non‑depressible 5 (GCN5). It has been documented that GNPNAT1 expression is increased in lung cancer, whereas its involvement in breast cancer (BC) remains to be further investigated. The present study aimed to evaluate the expression levels of GNPNAT1 in BC and its effect on BC stem cells (BCSCs). The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was used for the analysis of the expression of GNPNAT1 and its clinical significance. Cox regression and logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate prognosis‑related factors. The GNPNAT1‑binding protein network was constructed using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING) application. Th
