Source: NCBI Gene (ID 231642)
Symbol: Alkbh2
Full name: alkB homolog 2, alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: 9530023G02; Abh2; mABH2
Summary: Enables 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase activity and cytosine C-5 DNA demethylase activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA dealkylation involved in DNA repair and oxidative DNA demethylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to DNA damage stimulus. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human ALKBH2 (alkB homolog 2, alpha-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
