Summary
Enables mRNA (cytidine-5-)-methyltransferase activity and tRNA (cytidine-5-)-methyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including RNA processing; meiotic cell cycle checkpoint signaling; and tRNA stabilization. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Located in chromatoid body. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; extraembryonic component; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 5. Orthologous to human NSUN2 (NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
