TargetCategoryDefinition
ferrous iron bindingmolecular functionBinding to a ferrous iron ion, Fe(II). [GOC:ai]
transferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from one compound (generally regarded as the donor) to another compound (generally regarded as the acceptor). Transferase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 2. [ISBN:0198506732]
oxidative RNA demethylase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the removal of a methyl group from one or more nucleosides within a RNA molecule involving the oxidation (i.e. electron loss) of one or more atoms. [PMID:12594517, PMID:16482161, PMID:18775698]
broad specificity oxidative DNA demethylase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: a methylated nucleobase within DNA + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = a nucleobase within DNA + formaldehyde + succinate + CO2. Catalyzes oxidative demethylation of the DNA base lesions N1- methyladenine, N3-methylcytosine, N1-methylguanine, and N3- methylthymine. Can also act of RNA. [PMID:12594517, PMID:16482161, PMID:18775698, PMID:19786499, RHEA:30299]
mRNA N6-methyladenosine dioxygenase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the oxidative demethylation of N6-methyladenosine RNA, with concomitant decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate and releases oxidized methyl group on N6-methyladenosine as formaldehyde. [PMID:22002720, PMID:26458103]
tRNA demethylase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the removal of a methyl group from one or more positions within a tRNA molecule. [PMID:27745969]

Located In

This protein is located in 7 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
nucleuscellular componentA membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators]
nucleoplasmcellular componentThat part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0124325653]
cytoplasmcellular componentThe contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. [ISBN:0198547684]
cytosolcellular componentThe part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl]
plasma membranecellular componentThe membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. [ISBN:0716731363]
nuclear speckcellular componentA discrete extra-nucleolar subnuclear domain, 20-50 in number, in which splicing factors are seen to be localized by immunofluorescence microscopy. [http://www.cellnucleus.com/]
intracellular membrane-bounded organellecellular componentOrganized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane. [GOC:go_curators]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 11 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
temperature homeostasisbiological processA homeostatic process in which an organism modulates its internal body temperature. [GOC:jl]
DNA alkylation repairbiological processThe repair of alkylation damage in DNA, e.g. the removal of a non-physiological alkyl group from a nucleobase. This is usually mediated by DNA alkyltransferases. [PMID:10946226, PMID:35543797]
regulation of lipid storagebiological processAny process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of lipid storage. Lipid storage is the accumulation and maintenance in cells or tissues of lipids, compounds soluble in organic solvents but insoluble or sparingly soluble in aqueous solvents. Lipid reserves can be accumulated during early developmental stages for mobilization and utilization at later stages of development. [GOC:BHF, GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
snRNA processingbiological processAny process involved in the conversion of a primary small nuclear RNA (snRNA) transcript into a mature snRNA molecule. The primary function of snRNAs is processing pre-messenger RNA in the nucleus. They have also been shown to aid in the regulation of transcription factors (7SK RNA) or RNA polymerase II (B2 RNA), and maintaining the telomeres. [PMID:15196465, PMID:31815536]
regulation of multicellular organism growthbiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of growth of the body of an organism so that it reaches its usual body size. [GOC:dph, GOC:ems, GOC:tb]
RNA repairbiological processAny process that results in the repair of damaged RNA. [PMID:11000254, PMID:11070075, UniProtKB-KW:KW-0692]
regulation of respiratory system processbiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a respiratory system process, an organ system process carried out by any of the organs or tissues of the respiratory system. [GOC:jl]
adipose tissue developmentbiological processThe process whose specific outcome is the progression of adipose tissue over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Adipose tissue is specialized tissue that is used to store fat. [GOC:dph]
mRNA destabilizationbiological processAny process that decreases the stability of an mRNA molecule, making it more vulnerable to degradative processes. Messenger RNA is the intermediate molecule between DNA and protein. It includes UTR and coding sequences. It does not contain introns. [GOC:dph, GOC:jh]
regulation of white fat cell proliferationbiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of white fat cell proliferation. [GOC:mah, GOC:sl]
regulation of brown fat cell differentiationbiological processAny process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of brown fat cell differentiation. Brown fat cell differentiation is the process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a brown adipocyte, an animal connective tissue cell involved in adaptive thermogenesis. Brown adipocytes contain multiple small droplets of triglycerides and a high number of mitochondria. [GOC:tb]
