TET2
Overview
Tet methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (TET2; also known as ten-eleven translocation 2) is a gene that codes for methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2, a protein involved in epigenetic regulation of myelopoeisis (Gene 2014; PMID: 24220273). TET2 is a tumor suppressor, and so in cancer, loss of TET2 function, which can occur via TET2 mutation, TET2 deletion, or IDH1 or IDH2 mutation, can cause myeloid or lymphoid transformations (PMID: 24220273). Mutations in TET2 have been found in MDS, AML, ALL, and other hematologic malignancies.
