SLTM
geneOn this page
Also known as MetFLJ13213
Summary
SLTM (SAFB like transcription modulator, HGNC:20709) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 15q22.1, encoding SAFB-like transcription modulator (Q9NWH9). When overexpressed, acts as a general inhibitor of transcription that eventually leads to apoptosis. In precision oncology, MET Exon 14 Skipping Mutation confers sensitivity to Tepotinib in Lung Non-small Cell Carcinoma (CIViC Level A); 46 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below.
Enables RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of mRNA processing and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nuclear body.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 170 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.

Disease & clinical
Cancer significance
From CIViC — curated cancer-variant interpretation:
Mesenchymal Epithelial Transition MET is a prototypical receptor tyrosine kinase. Its ligand is Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF). MET alterations are drivers of human cancer. Amplification and resulting overexpression has been reported in several cancers, and make the receptor’s activity independent of HGF. Gene fusions also decouple kinase activity from the cell membrane and render it constitutively active. Finally, exclusion of the juxtamembrane (JM) domain of the kinase by ““skipping”” of exon 14 activates the kinase. FDA-approved selective MET inhibitors, including tepotinib and capmatinib, have shown efficacy in cancers with exon 14 skipping mutations or MET amplification.
From intOGen — cancer-driver classification: activating (oncogene-like) across 7 cancer types — CCRCC, LGGNOS, LUAD, NSCLC, OS, PRCC, RCC.
