    Background
    TIN2 (TRF1-interacting nuclear factor 2) is a central scaffold protein within the shelterin complex, a six-protein assembly that protects mammalian telomeres, regulating telomere length and integrity. TIN2 contains a telomere repeat factor homology (TRFH) domain, a TRFH-binding motif (TBM), and a domain associated with dyskeratosis congenita mutations. TIN2 interacts with TRF1 and TRF2, double-stranded telomeric DNA-binding proteins, through its TBM and TRFH domains, and directly binds TPP1 to facilitate the assembly of POT1 and TPP1 on telomeres, crucial for protecting single-stranded telomeric DNA. There are two major TIN2 isoforms, TIN2S and TIN2L, which modulate telomere stability and architecture. TIN2 coordinates cis (DNA compaction) and trans (DNA-DNA or DNA-RNA bridging) interactions, maintaining telomere structural integrity. Loss of TIN2 leads to telomere deprotection, activation of DNA damage responses (ATM/ATR kinases), chromatid fusion, and may result in embryonic lethality. TIN2 also interacts with the cohesin subunit SA1, regulating sister telomere cohesion, while Tankyrase1 controls TRF1-TIN2 association with telomeres. Acting as a cooperative platform, TIN2 bridges TRF1, TRF2, and TPP1, enabling shelterin functions in chromosome end protection, telomerase regulation, and genome stability. Mutations or dysfunction of TIN2 are linked to premature aging syndromes and cancer susceptibility.
