Human Gene NSUN5 (ENST00000252594.10) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase 5 (NSUN5), transcript variant 2, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_018044) RefSeq Summary (NM_018044): This gene encodes a member of an evolutionarily conserved family of proteins that may function as methyltransferases. This gene is located in a larger region of chromosome 7 that is deleted in Williams-Beuren syndrome, a multisystem developmental disorder. There are two pseudogenes for this gene located in the same region of chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Gencode Transcript: ENST00000252594.10 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000130305.17 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr7:73,303,230-73,308,806 Size: 5,577 Total Exon Count: 9 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr7:73,303,596-73,308,790 Size: 5,195 Coding Exon Count: 9
ID:NSUN5_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Putative methyltransferase NSUN5; EC=2.1.1.-; AltName: Full=NOL1-related protein; Short=NOL1R; AltName: Full=NOL1/NOP2/Sun domain family member 5; AltName: Full=Williams-Beuren syndrome chromosomal region 20A protein; FUNCTION: May have S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyl- transferase activity (Potential). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. Detected in placenta, heart and skeletal muscle. PTM: Isoform 2 is phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. DISEASE: Note=NSUN5 is located in the Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) critical region. WBS results from a hemizygous deletion of several genes on chromosome 7q11.23, thought to arise as a consequence of unequal crossing over between highly homologous low-copy repeat sequences flanking the deleted region. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. RsmB/NOP family.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
