Gene: TRDMT1
Alternate names for this Gene: DMNT2|DNMT2|MHSAIIP|PUMET|RNMT1
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein responsible for the methylation of aspartic acid transfer RNA, specifically at the cytosine-38 residue in the anticodon loop. This enzyme also possesses residual DNA-(cytosine-C5) methyltransferase activity. While similar in sequence and structure to DNA cytosine methyltransferases, this gene is distinct and highly conserved in its function among taxa.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 10
Location in Chromosome : 10p13
Description of this Gene: tRNA aspartic acid methyltransferase 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
