About FMO2

Cytogenetic location: 1q24.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:171,185,208-171,212,686 (from NCBI)

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]
