Target Name
ALKBH5
Target Full Name
RNA demethylase ALKBH5
Target Function
Dioxygenase that demethylates RNA by oxidative demethylation: specifically demethylates N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA, the most prevalent internal modification of messenger RNA (mRNA) in higher eukaryotes. Can also demethylate N(6)-methyladenosine in single-stranded DNA (in vitro). Requires molecular oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate and iron. Demethylation of m6A mRNA affects mRNA processing and export. Required for the late meiotic and haploid phases of spermatogenesis by mediating m6A demethylation in spermatocytes and round spermatids: m6A demethylation of target transcripts is required for correct splicing and the production of longer 3'-UTR mRNAs in male germ cells.
Target Subcellular Location
Nucleus speckle.
Target Protein Families
AlkB family
Target Tissue Specificity
Widely expressed, with highest expression in lung, followed by testis, pancreas, spleen and ovary.
Target Synonyms
ALKBH5; ABH5; OFOXD1RNA demethylase ALKBH5; EC 1.14.11.53; Alkylated DNA repair protein alkB homolog 5; Alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase alkB homolog 5
Target Background
Enables mRNA N6-methyladenosine dioxygenase activity. Involved in RNA metabolic process; mRNA export from nucleus; and response to hypoxia. Located in Golgi apparatus; cytosol; and nuclear speck.
