m1A demethylase Alkbh3 regulates neurogenesis through m1A demethylation of Mmp15 mRNA [PDF]
Background N1-Methyladenosine (m1A) is an abundant modification of transcripts regulating mRNA structure and translation efficiency. However, the characteristics and biological functions of mRNA m1A modification in adult hippocampal neurogenesis remain ...

Evaluation of ALKBH2 and ALKBH3 gene regulation in patients with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma [PDF]
Background Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is an oncogenic virus that causes malignant adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL). Patients infected with HTLV-1 are considered HTLV-1 carriers, and a small proportion of patients progress to life ...

Site‐Specific Mitochondrial RNA N1‐Methyladenosine Demethylation via an Engineered MTS‐PUF‐ALKBH3 Fusion Protein [PDF]
Mitochondrial RNA N1‐methyladenosine (m1A) is a prevalent and reversible epitranscriptomic modification. While the biological roles of cytosolic m1A have been increasingly understood, the causal relationship between site‐specific mitochondrial m1A and ...

Feedback regulation between histone lactylation and ALKBH3-mediated glycolysis regulates age-related macular degeneration pathology [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness among the elderly. It is characterized by degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which can develop into choroidal neovascularization (CNV) to cause severe and rapid vision loss.

CpG promoter methylation of the ALKBH3 alkylation repair gene in breast cancer [PDF]
Background DNA repair of alkylation damage is defective in various cancers. This occurs through somatically acquired inactivation of the MGMT gene in various cancer types, including breast cancers. In addition to MGMT, the two E.

A real-time PCR-based quantitative assay for 3-methylcytosine demethylase activity of ALKBH3
Human AlkB homolog 3 (ALKBH3), a homolog of the Escherichia coli protein AlkB, demethylates 1-methyladenine and 3-methylcytosine (3-meC) in single-stranded DNA and RNA by oxidative demethylation.

ALKBH3‐Mediated M1A Demethylation of METTL3 Endows Pathological Fibrosis:Interplay Between M1A and M6A RNA Methylation [PDF]
Epigenetic modifications serve as crucial molecular switches for pathological fibrosis; howbeit the role of m1A in this condition remains enigmatic. Herein, it is found that ALKBH3 exerts a pro‐fibrotic effect in pathological skin fibrosis by reshaping ...

Sequence Dependent Repair of 1,N6-Ethenoadenine by DNA Repair Enzymes ALKBH2, ALKBH3, and AlkB [PDF]
Mutation patterns of DNA adducts, such as mutational spectra and signatures, are useful tools for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Mutational spectra of carcinogens derive from three sources: adduct formation, replication bypass, and repair.
