Also known as PIR121
Summary
CYFIP2 (cytoplasmic FMR1 interacting protein 2, HGNC:13760) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 5q33.3, encoding Cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein 2 (Q96F07). Involved in T-cell adhesion and p53/TP53-dependent induction of apoptosis.
Predicted to enable small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell-cell adhesion; positive regulation of proteolysis; and regulation of postsynapse assembly. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm and synapse. Part of SCAR complex. Implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 65.

Function. Involved in T-cell adhesion and p53/TP53-dependent induction of apoptosis. Does not bind RNA. As component of the WAVE1 complex, required for BDNF-NTRK2 endocytic trafficking and signaling from early endosomes.
Subunit / interactions. Component of the WAVE1 complex composed of ABI2, CYFIP2, BRK1, NCKAP1 and WASF1/WAVE1. Interacts with FMR1, FXR1 and FXR2. Interacts with FMR1 isoform 6; the interaction occurs in a RNA-dependent manner. Interacts with RAC1 (activated form) which causes the complex to dissociate, releasing activated WASF1. The complex can also be activated by NCK1. Interacts with SHANK3; the interaction mediates the association of SHANK3 with the WAVE1 complex. Interacts with TMEM108 (via N-terminus); the interaction associates TMEM108 with the WAVE1 complex.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Perinuclear region. Synapse. Synaptosome.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in T-cells. Increased expression is observed in CD4(+) T-lymphocytes from patients with multiple sclerosis (at protein level).
Disease relevance. Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 65 (DEE65) [MIM:618008] A form of epileptic encephalopathy, a heterogeneous group of severe early-onset epilepsies characterized by refractory seizures, neurodevelopmental impairment, and poor prognosis. Development is normal prior to seizure onset, after which cognitive and motor delays become apparent. DEE65 is an autosomal dominant form characterized by onset of intractable seizures usually in the first 6 months of life and severe to profound psychomotor developmental delay. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Induction. By p53/TP53.
Similarity. Belongs to the CYFIP family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 162 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
