TRMT2B - tRNA methyltransferase 2 homolog B Gene
Also Known as CXorf34; dJ341D10.3
Species: Homo sapiens
About TRMT2B
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 162 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 3.4), spleen (RPKM 3.4) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a homolog of the TRM2 gene in S. cerevisiae. The yeast gene encodes a tRNA methyltransferase that plays a role in tRNA maturation. The yeast protein also has endo-exonuclease activity and may be involved in DNA double strand break repair. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcripts encoding different isoforms.
