ALKBH2 (alkB, alkylation repair homolog 2), also known as ABH2, is a 261 amino acid protein that localizes to the nucleus and belongs to the alkB family.
Expressed in heart, colon, liver, testis, ovary, prostate and small intestine, ALKBH2 uses iron as a cofactor and functions as a dioxygenase that catalyzes the repair of alkylated DNA and RNA containing 1-methyladenine and 3-methylcytosine.
ALKBH2 is functionally activated by ascorbate and requires oxygen and å-ketoglutarate for enzymatic activity.
The gene encoding ALKBH2 maps to human chromosome 12, which encodes over 1,100 genes and comprises ~4.5% of the human genome.
Chromosome 12 is associated with a variety of diseases and afflictions, including hypochondrogenesis, achondrogenesis, Kniest dysplasia, Noonan syndrome and Trisomy 12p, which causes facial developmental defects and seizure disorders.
