Frequently rearranged in advanced T-cell lymphomas 2, also known as FRAT2, is a human gene.[1]

The protein encoded by this intronless gene belongs to the GSK-3-binding protein family. Studies show that this protein plays a role as a positive regulator of the WNT signaling pathway. It may be upregulated in tumor progression.[1]
