Malignant cells displayed moderate to strong nuclear positivity. Most testicular cancers were wekaly stained.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
TET2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
FLJ20032, KIAA1546
Description
Tet methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. The encoded protein is involved in myelopoiesis, and defects in this gene have been associated with several myeloproliferative disorders. Two variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
