About METTL2B

Cytogenetic location: 7q32.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:128,476,748-128,506,602 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 200 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 7.8), fat (RPKM 7.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of a family of methyltransferases that share homology with, but are distinct from, the UbiE family of methyltransferases. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, not all variants have been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
