Summary
ZMYM2 (zinc finger MYM-type containing 2, HGNC:12989) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 13q12.11, encoding Zinc finger MYM-type protein 2 (Q9UBW7). Involved in the negative regulation of transcription.
The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger protein that may act as a transcription factor. The encoded protein may be part of a BHC histone deacetylase complex. Translocation of this gene with the fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 gene (FGFR1) results in a fusion gene, which may be a cause of stem cell leukemia lymphoma syndrome (SCLL). Several transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

Disease relevance. Neurodevelopmental-craniofacial syndrome with variable renal and cardiac abnormalities (NECRC) [MIM:619522] An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by dysmorphic craniofacial features, mild developmental delay, mildly impaired intellectual development or learning difficulties, speech delay, and behavioral abnormalities. About half of patients have congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract and/or congenital cardiac defects, including septal defects. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. A chromosomal aberration involving ZMYM2 may be a cause of stem cell leukemia lymphoma syndrome (SCLL). Translocation t(8;13)(p11;q12) with FGFR1. SCLL usually presents as lymphoblastic lymphoma in association with a myeloproliferative disorder, often accompanied by pronounced peripheral eosinophilia and/or prominent eosinophilic infiltrates in the affected bone marrow.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 179 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.
Reactome pathways:
| Pathway | Partners | Fold | FDR |
