Inhibitor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells, kinase epsilon (IKBKE) is a gene that encodes a protein kinase that regulates antiviral signaling pathways. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, and frameshift deletions and insertions are observed in cancers such as intestinal cancer, skin cancer, and stomach cancer.

IKBKE is altered in 1.45% of all cancers with breast invasive ductal carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, cutaneous melanoma, and invasive breast carcinoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].

The most common alterations in IKBKE are IKBKE Mutation (0.86%), IKBKE Amplification (0.60%), IKBKE Loss (0.05%), IKBKE R127W (0.02%), and IKBKE R134H (0.02%) [3].
