LMO2

LIM domain only 2 (rhombotin-like 1), also known as LMO2, RBTNL1, RBTN2, RHOM2, LIM Domain Only Protein 2, TTG2, and T-Cell Translocation Protein 2, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the LMO2 gene.[5]

Function

LMO2 encodes a cysteine-rich, two LIM domain protein that is required for yolk sac erythropoiesis.[6] The LMO2 protein has a central and crucial role in hematopoietic development and is highly conserved.

Clinical significance

Aberrant LMO2 expression is a significant feature of T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia with multiple described mechanisms of activation.[7][8] The LMO2 transcription start site is located approximately 25 kb downstream from the 11p13 T-cell translocation cluster (11p13 ttc), where a number of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia-specific translocations occur.[9] An upstream noncoding DNA element is also the site of recurrent mutations in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, leading the recruitment of the transcription factor MYB and significant H3K27ac enrichment and thus the formation of an aberrant enhancer which up-regulates the expression of LMO2 [10] Furthermore, recurrent and somatically acquired mutations of LMO2 intron 1 lead to its over-expression in both adult and paediatric T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.[11] These mutations introduce new transcription factor binding sites for MYB, ETS1 and RUNX1 allowing for the formation of an aberrant promoter which drives LMO2 expression.
