About ALKBH1

Cytogenetic location: 14q24.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:77,672,404-77,708,023 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants) and 205 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 4.0), thyroid (RPKM 3.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a homolog to the E. coli alkB gene product. The E. coli alkB protein is part of the adaptive response mechanism of DNA alkylation damage repair. It is involved in damage reversal by oxidative demethylation of 1-methyladenine and 3-methylcytosine. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
