FMO2 - flavin containing dimethylaniline monoxygenase 2 Gene
Also Known as FMO1B1
Species: Homo sapiens
About FMO2
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 136 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 59.7), lung (RPKM 58.7) and 8 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a flavin-containing monooxygenase family member. It is an NADPH-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the N-oxidation of some primary alkylamines through an N-hydroxylamine intermediate. However, some human populations contain an allele (FMO2*2A) with a premature stop codon, resulting in a protein that is C-terminally-truncated, has no catalytic activity, and is likely degraded rapidly. This gene is found in a cluster with Other related family members on chromosome 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]
