NCIt definition : Human FERMT2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 14q22.1 and is approximately
95 kb in length. This allele, which encodes fermitin family homolog 2 protein, plays
a role in both the assembly of focal adhesions and integrin signaling.;
NCIt note : There is a report of a chromosomal aberration involving the ERO1L gene and the FERMT2
gene, which is associated with breast cancer. (COSMIC);
