Alkbh5 - alkB homolog 5, RNA demethylase Gene

Also Known as Abh5; Ofoxd; E130207K11

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 268420

Summary

Enables mRNA N6-methyladenosine dioxygenase activity. Involved in oxidative single-stranded RNA demethylation; regulation of mRNA stability; and spermatogenesis. Located in nuclear speck. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to human ALKBH5 (alkB homolog 5, RNA demethylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
