PRUNE2 (Protein prune homolog 2) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Neuroblastoma.
May play an important role in regulating differentiation, survival and aggressiveness of the tumour cells.
IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (0 activating, 1 loss-of-function), covering Neuroblastoma.
In plain words · PRUNE2 (Protein prune homolog 2) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Neuroblastoma.

No product in this corpus aims at PRUNE2 yet. Because the protein is lost rather than overactive, drugs either restore its function or exploit the weakness its loss leaves (synthetic lethality).
First described 1997. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Nagase et al, DNA Res, 1997, "Prediction of the coding sequences of unidentified human genes. VII. The complete sequences of 100 new cDNA clones from brain which can code for large proteins in vitro". Source.
