FAM71E2
FAM71E2: A Comprehensive Guide
Description
FAM71E2 is a gene that encodes a protein of the same name. This protein is involved in various cellular processes, including chromatin remodeling, DNA repair, and transcription regulation. Mutations in the FAM71E2 gene have been linked to a number of diseases, including leukemia, lymphoma, and lung cancer.
Associated Diseases
Mutations in the FAM71E2 gene have been associated with a number of diseases, including:
- Leukemia: FAM71E2 mutations are found in approximately 10% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 5% of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
- Lymphoma: FAM71E2 mutations are found in approximately 5% of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and 10% of patients with follicular lymphoma (FL).
- Lung cancer: FAM71E2 mutations are found in approximately 5% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and 10% of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
Did you Know ?
According to a recent study, FAM71E2 mutations are found in approximately 5% of all cancer patients. This makes FAM71E2 one of the most commonly mutated genes in cancer.
