| UniProtAcc | P16070 Main function of 5'-partner protein: FUNCTION: Cell-surface receptor that plays a role in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion and migration, helping them to sense and respond to changes in the tissue microenvironment (PubMed:16541107, PubMed:19703720, PubMed:22726066). Participates thereby in a wide variety of cellular functions including the activation, recirculation and homing of T-lymphocytes, hematopoiesis, inflammation and response to bacterial infection (PubMed:7528188). Engages, through its ectodomain, extracellular matrix components such as hyaluronan/HA, collagen, growth factors, cytokines or proteases and serves as a platform for signal transduction by assembling, via its cytoplasmic domain, protein complexes containing receptor kinases and membrane proteases (PubMed:18757307, PubMed:23589287). Such effectors include PKN2, the RhoGTPases RAC1 and RHOA, Rho-kinases and phospholipase C that coordinate signaling pathways promoting calcium mobilization and actin-mediated cytoskeleton reorganization essential for cell migration and adhesion (PubMed:15123640). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15123640, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16541107, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18757307, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19703720, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22726066, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23589287, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7528188}. | Q93063 Main function of 5'-partner protein: FUNCTION: Glycosyltransferase required for the biosynthesis of heparan-sulfate. The EXT1/EXT2 complex possesses substantially higher glycosyltransferase activity than EXT1 or EXT2 alone. Appears to be a tumor suppressor. Required for the exosomal release of SDCBP, CD63 and syndecan (PubMed:22660413). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22660413}. | |

| DeepORF prediction of the coding potential based on the fusion transcript sequence of in-frame fusion genes. DeepORF is a coding potential classifier based on convolutional neural network by comparing the real Ribo-seq data. If the no-coding score < 0.5 and coding score > 0.5, then the in-frame fusion transcript is predicted as being likely translated. |

| Multiple sequence alignments of the potential FusionNeoAntigens per fusion breakpoints. If the MSA is empty, then it means that there were predicted fusion neoantigens in this fusion breakpoint, but those predicted fusion neoantigens were not across the breakpoint, which is not fusion-specific. |
| Potential FusionNeoAntigen Information * We used NetMHCIIpan v4.1 (%rank<0.5). |

Fusion breakpoint peptide structures of CD44-EXT2 |
| 3D structures of the fusion breakpoint peptide of 14AA sequence that have potential fusion neoantigens * The minimum length of the amino acid sequence in RoseTTAFold is 14AA. Here, we predicted the 14AA fusion protein breakpoint sequence not the fusion neoantigen peptide, which is shorter than 14 AA. |

Filtering FusionNeoAntigens Through Checking the Interaction with HLAs in 3D of CD44-EXT2 |
| Virtual screening between 25 HLAs (from PDB) and FusionNeoAntigens * We used Glide to predict the interaction between HLAs and neoantigens. |

Information of the samples that have these potential fusion neoantigens of CD44-EXT2 |
| These samples were reported as having these fusion breakpoints. For individual breakpoints, we checked the open reading frames considering multiple gene isoforms and chose the in-frame fusion genes only. Then, we made fusion protein sequences and predicted the fusion neoantigens. These fusion-positive samples may have these potential fusion neoantigens. |

Potential target of CAR-T therapy development for CD44-EXT2 |
| Predicted 3D structure. We used RoseTTAFold. |
| Retention analysis result of each fusion partner protein across 39 protein features of UniProt such as six molecule processing features, 13 region features, four site features, six amino acid modification features, two natural variation features, five experimental info features, and 3 secondary structure features. Here, to provide the retention of the transmembrane domain, we only show the protein feature retention information of those transmembrane features * Minus value of BPloci means that the break point is located before the CDS. |
| - In-frame and retained 'Transmembrane'. |

| Subcellular localization prediction of the transmembrane domain retained fusion proteins * We used DeepLoc 1.0. The order of the X-axis of the barplot is as follows: Entry_ID, Localization, Type, Nucleus, Cytoplasm, Extracellular, Mitochondrion, Cell_membrane, Endoplasmic_reticulum, Plastid, Golgi.apparatus, Lysosome.Vacuole, Peroxisome. Y-axis is the output score of DeepLoc. Clicking the image will open a new tab with a large image. |
