Description
CCNG2 encodes cyclin G2, a member of the cyclin family involved in cell cycle regulation. It acts as a negative regulator of cell proliferation and is implicated in tumor suppression. Expression is induced by DNA damage and growth inhibitory signals, and it interacts with CDK2 and other cell cycle components.
Disease Associations
| Disease category | Pathophysiological mechanism | Genomic evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Breast cancer | Downregulation of CCNG2 promotes cell proliferation and tumor growth; acts as a tumor suppressor | PMID: 23454728 |
| Hepatocellular carcinoma | Reduced expression correlates with poor prognosis; inhibits cell cycle progression | PMID: 25636874 |
| Gastric cancer | CCNG2 hypermethylation leads to silencing and increased tumorigenesis | PMID: 24158429 |

Protein Summary
Cyclin G2 is a 344-amino acid protein with a cyclin N-terminal domain. It localizes to the nucleus and interacts with CDK2 and other proteins to regulate cell cycle progression. It is induced by DNA damage and growth arrest signals, and its loss is associated with various cancers.
