NCIt definition : Human SH2B3 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 12q24 and is approximately
46 kb in length. This allele, which encodes SH2B adapter protein 3, is involved in
signal transduction. Mutation of the gene is associated with susceptibility to both
celiac disease type 13 and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.;
NCIt note : Somatic mutation of the SH2B3 gene may be associated with early T-cell precursor acute
lymphoblastic leukemia. (Nature. 2012; 481:157-163.);
