Alkbh2 - alkB homolog 2, alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase

Predicted to enable DNA-N1-methyladenine dioxygenase activity; cytosine C-5 DNA demethylase activity; and ferrous iron binding activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA dealkylation involved in DNA repair and oxidative DNA demethylation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human ALKBH2 (alkB homolog 2, alpha-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
