Target Details for FTO

Target: FTO (Fat Mass and Obesity-Associated (FTO))

Alternative Name: FTO

Background:

Synonyms: Alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase FTO, Fat mass and obesity-associated protein, FTO, KIAA1752, GDFD, ALKBH9, BMIQ14, Fatso.

Background: RNA demethylase that mediates oxidative demethylation of different RNA species, such as mRNAs, tRNAs and snRNAs, and acts as a regulator of fat mass, adipogenesis and energy homeostasis. Specifically demethylates N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA, the most prevalent internal modification of messenger RNA (mRNA) in higher eukaryotes. M6A demethylation by FTO affects mRNA expression and stability. Also able to demethylate m6A in U6 small nuclear RNA (snRNA). Also acts as a tRNA demethylase by removing N1-methyladenine from various tRNAs. Also able to repair alkylated DNA and RNA by oxidative demethylation. Involved in the regulation of fat mass, adipogenesis and body weight, thereby contributing to the regulation of body size and body fat accumulation. Involved in the regulation of thermogenesis and the control of adipocyte differentiation into brown or white fat cells. Regulates activity of the dopaminergic midbrain circuitry via its ability to demethylate m6A in mRNAs. Plays an oncogenic role in a number of acute myeloid leukemias by enhancing leukemic oncogene-mediated cell transformation: acts by mediating m6A demethylation of target transcripts such as MYC, CEBPA, ASB2 and RARA, leading to promote their expression
