Description

FGFR1OP2 (Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 Oncogene Partner 2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 12p11.23. The encoded protein is a component of the centrosome and is involved in microtubule organization, cell cycle progression, and ciliogenesis. It interacts with FGFR1OP and other centrosomal proteins to maintain centrosome integrity. Dysregulation of FGFR1OP2 has been implicated in certain cancers and ciliopathies.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Acute myeloid leukemia FGFR1OP2 rearrangements (e.g., with FGFR1) lead to constitutive kinase activation and leukemogenesis. PMID: 15659713; COSMIC
Ciliopathy-related disorders Loss of FGFR1OP2 function disrupts primary cilia formation, contributing to developmental defects. PMID: 23001564; UniProt

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense or frameshift mutations leading to truncated protein and centrosome dysfunction.

Gain of Function (GOF)

FGFR1OP2-FGFR1 fusions result in constitutive kinase activity.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not reported

FGFR1 signaling (via fusions)
Ciliogenesis

Protein Summary

FGFR1OP2 encodes a 317-amino acid protein (UniProt Q9NVH6) localized to the centrosome. It contains a coiled-coil domain that mediates interaction with FGFR1OP and other centrosomal components. The protein is essential for proper centrosome duplication, microtubule anchoring, and primary cilium formation. Its expression is highest in testis and bone marrow, and it is upregulated in certain leukemias where FGFR1OP2 fusions drive oncogenic signaling.
