DNA oxidative demethylase EC#: 1.14.11.33; ChemWhat Code: 1375118
Product Name | DNA oxidative demethylase |
Example Structure | |
Synonyms | 1-methyladenine-DNA dioxygenase, ABH1, ABH2, ABH3, AlkB, AlkB homolog 1, ALKBH2, ALKBH3, ALKBH8, alkylated DNA repair protein, alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase ABH1, FTO |
EC Number | 1.14.11.33 |
CAS Registry Number | |
Comments | Contains iron; activity is slightly stimulated by ascorbate. Catalyses oxidative demethylation of the DNA base lesions N1-methyladenine, N3-methylcytosine, N1-methylguanine, and N3-methylthymine. It works better on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and is capable of repairing damaged bases in RNA. |
Cofactor | Fe cation |
History | |
Reactions | DNA-base-CH(3) + 2-oxoglutarate + O(2) = DNA-base + formaldehyde + succinate + CO(2). |
