About N6AMT1

Cytogenetic location: 21q21.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 21:28,575,598-28,885,367 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in prostate (RPKM 1.2), ovary (RPKM 1.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes an N(6)-adenine-specific DNA Methyltransferase. The encoded Enzyme may be involved in the methylation of release factor I during translation termination. This Enzyme is also involved in converting the arsenic metabolite monomethylarsonous acid to the less toxic dimethylarsonic acid. Alternative splicing pf this gene results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 11. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
