Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the ALKB Homolog Gene Family in Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). [PDF]

open access: goldInt J Mol Sci
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is an abundant and pervasive post-transcriptional modification in eukaryotic mRNAs. AlkB homolog (ALKBH) proteins play crucial roles in RNA metabolism and translation, participating in m6A methylation modification to regulate plant development.

Role of the viral AlkB homologs in RNA repair [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2014
AlkB proteins that repair DNA via reversing methylation damage are conserved in a broad range of prokaryotes and eukaryotes including plants. Surprisingly, AlkB-domains were discovered in the genomes of numerous plant positive-strand RNA viruses, majority of which belong to the family Flexiviridae. The major goal of this research was to reveal the AlkB

Role of the Demethylase AlkB Homolog H5 in the Promotion of Dentinogenesis [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Dentinogenesis is a key process in tooth formation and is regulated by a series of pre- and post-transcriptional regulations. N6-methyl-adenosine (m6A), which is the most prevalent internal chemical modification that can be removed by the RNA demethylase AlkB homolog H5 (ALKBH5), has recently been reported to be involved in several biological processes.

AlkB homolog 3-mediated tRNA demethylation promotes protein synthesis in cancer cells [PDF]

open access: goldScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractThe mammalian AlkB homolog (ALKBH) family of proteins possess a 2-oxoglutarate- and Fe(II)-dependent oxygenase domain. A similar domain in the Escherichia coli AlkB protein catalyzes the oxidative demethylation of 1-methyladenine (1-meA) and 3-methylcytosine (3-meC) in both DNA and RNA.

An alkB gene homolog is differentially transcribed during the Caulobacter crescentus cell cycle [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Bacteriology, 1997
A Caulobacter crescentus alkB gene homolog was identified in a clone previously shown to contain the heat shock genes dnaK and dnaJ; the homolog is located upstream of dnaK and is transcribed in the opposite orientation. An analysis of the alkB gene has shown that the deduced amino acid sequence is that of a 21-kDa protein, which is 42% identical and ...

Generalization of Classification of AlkB Family Alkane Monooxygenases from Rhodococcus (sensu lato) Group Based on Phylogenetic Analysis and Genomic Context Comparison. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
Alkane-oxidizing bacteria play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle. Rhodococcus species are well-known hydrocarbon degraders, distinguished by the harboring of multiple homologs of AlkB family alkane monooxygenases.

Characterization of a Trypanosoma brucei Alkb homolog capable of repairing alkylated DNA [PDF]

open access: greenExperimental Parasitology, 2012
Trypanosoma brucei encodes a protein (denoted TbABH) that is homologous to AlkB of Escherichia coli and AlkB homolog (ABH) proteins in other organisms, raising the possibility that trypanosomes catalyze oxidative repair of alkylation-damaged DNA. TbABH was cloned and expressed in E.

Novel AlkB dioxygenases--alternative models for in silico and in vivo studies.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundALKBH proteins, the homologs of Escherichia coli AlkB dioxygenase, constitute a direct, single-protein repair system, protecting cellular DNA and RNA against the cytotoxic and mutagenic activity of alkylating agents, chemicals significantly ...

ALKBH1-8 and FTO: Potential Therapeutic Targets and Prognostic Biomarkers in Lung Adenocarcinoma Pathogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The AlkB family consists of Fe(II)- and α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases that can catalyze demethylation on a variety of substrates, such as RNA and DNA, subsequently affecting tumor progression and prognosis.

Human AlkB Homolog ABH8 Is a tRNA Methyltransferase Required for Wobble Uridine Modification and DNA Damage Survival [PDF]

open access: greenMolecular and Cellular Biology, 2010
tRNA nucleosides are extensively modified to ensure their proper function in translation. However, many of the enzymes responsible for tRNA modifications in mammals await identification. Here, we show that human AlkB homolog 8 (ABH8) catalyzes tRNA methylation to generate 5-methylcarboxymethyl uridine (mcm(5)U) at the wobble position of certain tRNAs ...
