Target Name

ALKBH8
Target Full Name

tRNA (carboxymethyluridine(34)-5-O)-methyltransferase ALKBH8
Target Function

Catalyzes the methylation of 5-carboxymethyl uridine to 5-methylcarboxymethyl uridine at the wobble position of the anticodon loop in tRNA via its methyltransferase domain. Catalyzes the last step in the formation of 5-methylcarboxymethyl uridine at the wobble position of the anticodon loop in target tRNA. Has a preference for tRNA(Arg) and tRNA(Glu), and does not bind tRNA(Lys)(PubMed:20308323). Binds tRNA and catalyzes the iron and alpha-ketoglutarate dependent hydroxylation of 5-methylcarboxymethyl uridine at the wobble position of the anticodon loop in tRNA via its dioxygenase domain, giving rise to 5-(S)-methoxycarbonylhydroxymethyluridine; has a preference for tRNA(Gly). Required for normal survival after DNA damage. May inhibit apoptosis and promote cell survival and angiogenesis.
Target Subcellular Location

Target Background

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.
