Summary: Enables broad specificity oxidative DNA demethylase activity and chemoattractant activity. Involved in positive regulation of gene expression, epigenetic and regulation of translational initiation by tRNA modification. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including generation of neurons; in utero embryonic development; and negative regulation of neuron apoptotic process. Located in euchromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; hemolymphoid system gland; hindlimb muscle; and limb bud. Orthologous to human ALKBH1 (alkB homolog 1, histone H2A dioxygenase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
