TET2

TET2 encodes a 5-methylcytosine dioxygenase that converts 5mC → 5hmC → 5fC → 5caC → demethylation via TDG/BER; TET2 loss-of-function mutations occur in ~20% CHIP (most common), ~20% MDS, ~60% CMML, and ~60-80% AITL; IDH1/2-produced 2-HG inhibits TET2.

Also known as: TET2, TET2 mutation, ten-eleven translocation 2, TET2 CHIP, TET2 AITL, TET2 CMML, TET2 MDS, DNA demethylation TET2
