TET1

Overview

TET1 is a dioxygenase that oxidizes 5-methylcytosine to drive DNA demethylation. In the corpus, TET1 is among the recurrent SNVs identified in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC).

Alterations observed in the corpus

  • TET1 was identified as a recurrent SNV by SeqSig analysis in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma across a comprehensive genomic and evolutionary landscape study of ATC PMID:38412093.
  • Downregulated expression in Cluster 1 cholangiocarcinoma, suggesting loss-of-demethylation as an epigenetic mechanism for Cluster 1 hypermethylation PMID:28667006

Cancer types (linked)

Co-occurrence and mutual exclusivity

Therapeutic relevance

  • No direct targeted therapy reported in the corpus.

Open questions

  • Frequency and functional role of TET1 mutations in ATC progression (vs. PTC/co-DTC) are not separately enumerated in the corpus PMID:38412093.
