Human Gene TRMT2B (ENST00000372935.5) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens tRNA methyltransferase 2 homolog B (TRMT2B), transcript variant 2, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_001167970) RefSeq Summary (NM_001167970): This gene encodes a homolog of the TRM2 gene in S. cerevisiae. The yeast gene encodes a tRNA methyltransferase that plays a role in tRNA maturation. The yeast protein also has endo-exonuclease activity and may be involved in DNA double strand break repair. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcripts encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000372935.5 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000188917.15 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chrX:101,009,542-101,052,070 Size: 42,529 Total Exon Count: 14 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chrX:101,010,581-101,042,289 Size: 31,709 Coding Exon Count: 12
ID:TRM2_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=tRNA (uracil(54)-C(5))-methyltransferase homolog; EC=2.1.1.35; AltName: Full=TRM2 homolog; FUNCTION: Probable S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of 5-methyl-uridine at position 54 (m5U54) in all tRNA. May also have a role in tRNA stabilization or maturation (By similarity). CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + uridine(54) in tRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 5-methyluridine(54) in tRNA. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. RNA M5U methyltransferase 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.
