ALKBH2

Gene
ALKBH2
Protein
DNA oxidative demethylase ALKBH2
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
314 amino acids
Function
Dioxygenase that repairs alkylated DNA containing 1-methyladenine and 1-ethenoadenine by oxidative demethylation. Accepts double-stranded and single-stranded substrates, with a preference for dsDNA over ssDNA. Confers resistance to methylating agents such as methylmethanesulphonate (MMS).
Similarity
Belongs to the alkB family.

Protein
DNA oxidative demethylase ALKBH2
Organism
Bos taurus
Length
278 amino acids
Function
Dioxygenase that repairs alkylated DNA and RNA containing 1-methyladenine and 3-methylcytosine by oxidative demethylation. Can also repair alkylated DNA containing 1-ethenoadenine (in vitro). Has strong preference for double-stranded DNA. Has low efficiency with single-stranded substrates. Requires molecular oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate and iron (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the alkB family.
