Q6N021

TET2 (Tet oncogene family member 2), also known as KIAA1546, is a 2,002 amino acid protein that is expressed in a variety of tissues, including brain, kidney, heart, lung, muscle and stomach, and exists as three alternatively spliced isoforms. Murine TET2 is also known as protein Ayu17-449 and is thought to play a role in proper kidney development and overall kidney function, as well as in hormone secretion throughout the body. The gene encoding human TET2 maps to chromosome 4 and the gene encoding mouse TET2 maps to chromosome 3.
