Alternative Name: FTO

Background:

Synonyms: GTP-binding nuclear protein Ran,Androgen receptor-associated protein 24,GTPase Ran,Ras-like protein TC4,Ras-related nuclear protein,RAN,ARA24,OK/SW-cl.81,

Tissue Specificity: Expressed in a variety of tissues. .

Background: Fat mass and obesity-associated protein also known as alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase FTO is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FTO gene located on chromosome 16. This gene is a nuclear protein of the AlkB related non-haem iron and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenase superfamily but the exact physiological function of this gene is not known. Other non-heme iron enzymes function to reverse alkylated DNA and RNA damage by oxidative demethylation. Studies in mice and humans indicate a role in nervous and cardiovascular systems and a strong association with body mass index, obesity risk, and type 2 diabetes.
