Description
Product Characteristics: Synonyms: DKFZp686J14194, FJH1, FtsJ homolog 2(E. coli), FTSJ2, Protein ftsJ homolog 2
Putative ribosomal RNA methyltransferase 2(FTSJ2), also named as FJH1 or Protein FTSJ homolog 2 is a 246 amino acid protein, which belongs to the methyl-transferase superfamily. FTSJ2 localizes in the nucleus and is widely expressed in in muscle, placenta, and heart. FTSJ2 functions as a nucleolar RNA methyl-transferase involved in eukaryotic RNA processing and modification.
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S-adenosylmethionine-binding protein family. It is a nucleolar protein and it may be involved in the processing and modification of rRNA. This gene has been suggested to be involved in cell cycle control and DNA repair.
