JAZF zinc finger 1 (JAZF1) is a gene that encodes a nuclear protein that functions as a transcriptional repressor. Fusions, missense mutations, and silent mutations are observed in cancers such as endometrial cancer, intestinal cancer, and skin cancer.

JAZF1 is altered in 0.22% of all cancers with lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma, low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma, and breast invasive ductal carcinoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].
