Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is a gene that encodes a protein that propagates cytokines signals via the phosphorylation of cytokine receptor subunits. Fusions, missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, frameshift deletions and insertions are observed in cancers such as eye cancer, intestinal cancer, and skin cancer.
