TRDMT1, Official Symbol TRDMT1provided by HGNC Official Full Name tRNA aspartic acid methyltransferase 1provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:2977 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000107614 MIM:602478; AllianceGenome:HGNC:2977 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as DMNT2; DNMT2; PUMET; RNMT1; MHSAIIP 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.
