About ALKBH8

Cytogenetic location: 11q22.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:107,502,727-107,565,735 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 3.3), lymph node (RPKM 3.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Enables tRNA (uracil) methyltransferase activity; tRNA binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in cellular response to DNA damage stimulus; tRNA methylation; and tRNA wobble uridine modification. Located in cytosol and nuclear body. Implicated in autosomal recessive non-syndromic intellectual disability. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
