| 15814641    | 2005 | Cell line : - Source : Taqman PCR , Spearman rank correlation, Hierarchical clustering analysis. Sample Type : - No. of Sample : Nontumor and tumor sample from 52 patients Stage : Duke Stage C | - | Up-regulation | >1.2 | A group of 11 genes ((FPGS, DHFR, GGH, NME1, NME2, RRM2, UMPH2, UNG, UMPS, TP53, and TK1) which showing overexpression may provide valuable insights for optimizing treatment selection for patients with colorectal cancer. |

| 21873171    | 2011 | Cell line : HCT 116 Source : - Sample Type : - No. of Sample : - Stage : - | Cell proliferation and colony formation assays | Up-regulation | - | RRM2 represents a novel therapeutic target, thus highlighting the potential utility of RRM2 inhibitors in colorectal cancer with oncogenic KRAS. RRM2 expression is essential for cell proliferation and anchorage independent growth. |
| 23002339    | 2012 | Cell line : HCT 116, SW 480 and SW 620 Source : Shanghai Minimal Invasive Surgery Centre (Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine) Sample Type : CRC tumor and normal tissue No. of Sample : 56 CRC tissues and 56 adjacent normal mucosa Stage : - | Tissue microarray, Immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR and Western blotting | Up-regulation | - | RRM2 overexpression was positively correlated with invasion depth, poorly differentiated type, and tumor node metastasis stage. RRM2 silencing by siRNA may inhibit the hyperplasia and invasiveness of CRC cells, suggesting that RRM2 may play an important role in the infiltration and metastasis of CRC, which is a potential therapeutic strategy in CRC. |
| 23113760    | 2013 | Cell line : - Source : COH National Medical Center and Zhejiang University. Sample Type : Case control study No. of Sample : 437 CRC cases Stage : - | Immunohistochemistry, real time RT-PCR | Up-regulation | - | RRM2 is an independent prognostic factor and predicts poor survival of CRCs. It is also a potential predictor for identifying good responders to chemotherapy for CRCs. The Kaplan-Meier analysis displayed that high expression of RRM2 had a negative impact on the OS (overall survival) and PFS (progress-free survival) of CRC. |
Gene Details

| Gene Family | - |
| Description | This gene encodes one of two non-identical subunits for ribonucleotide reductase. This reductase catalyzes the formation of deoxyribonucleotides from ribonucleotides. Synthesis of the encoded protein (M2) is regulated in a cell-cycle dependent fashion. Transcription from this gene can initiate from alternative promoters, which results in two isoforms that differ in the lengths of their N-termini. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 1 and X. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]   | Chromosome | 2 |
