The interferon regulatory factor 2 gene is a strong candidate gene for type 2 psoriasis, because of the localization of the gene to chromosome 4q35, and the function of the protein to negatively regulate the secretion of interferon alpha and beta. The methylation of the promoter alters the expression of the gene and has been implicated as the cause for aging and cancer. The methylation status of the interferon regulatory factor 2 was investigated in DNA of peripheral leukocytes with type 2 psoriasis. Genomic DNAs of ten cases with old psoriasis were bisulfated. The promoter region of the IRF2 gene was PCR-amplified and cloned to TA cloning vector and sequenced. Approximately 20 clones were sequenced with each subject. However, it was demonstrated that the promoter of the IRF2 gene was not methylated in type 2 psoriasis. The proportion of the methylated CpG was about 0.5%. Thus, it was suggested that the methylation of the promoter of IRF2 gene was not associated with type 2 psoriasis.

干扰素调节因子2基因是2型牛皮癣的强候选基因，因为该基因将基因定位于4q35染色体，并且蛋白质的功能对干扰素α和β的分泌负调节。启动子的甲基化改变了基因的表达，并被牵涉到衰老和癌症的原因。在具有2型牛皮癣的外周血白细胞的DNA中研究了干扰素调节因子2的甲基化状态。十个旧牛皮癣病例的基因组DNA被养成。将IRF2基因的启动子区域进行PCR扩增并克隆到TA克隆载体并进行测序。将大约20个克隆与每个受试者进行测序。然而，证明IRF2基因的启动子在2型牛皮癣中未甲基化。甲基化CpG的比例约为0.5％。因此，有人提出IRF2基因启动子的甲基化与2型牛皮癣无关。
