## TL;DR

NUTM2D (NUT family member 2D) is a gene that drives cell growth when it is altered. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

## Summary

UniProt has no function text for Q5VT03; HGNC names it "NUT family member 2D".

IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (1 activating, 0 loss-of-function), covering Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.

## Fields

- Kind: Target
- Last checked: 2026-09-23
- Also known as: NUT family member 2D; FAM22D
- Tags: cancer-genes-wave
- Symbol: NUTM2D
- Class: oncogene
- Biology: UniProt has no function text for Q5VT03; HGNC names it "NUT family member 2D". Locus 10q23.2 (HGNC).
- Where found: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma: IntOGen driver in 1 cohort (NPC)

## Notes

- Written by scripts/fetch-cancer-genes.ts from CIViC, Open Targets, IntOGen, HGNC and UniProt; the function text is UniProt's, condensed and in UK spelling. Roles: IntOGen calls it an activating (Act) driver in 1 cohort. Evidence tier "cohort-driver" is the strongest of those signals.
- Prevalence not recorded: none of the sources gives a positivity rate.
