Entrez ID 64848
Gene name YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein C2
Gene symbol YTHDC2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CAHLhYTHDC2
Chromosome 5
Chromosome location 5q22.2
Summary This gene encodes a member of the DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) subfamily of proteins, part of the DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box family of RNA helicases. The encoded protein binds to N6-methyladenosine, a common modified RNA nucleotide that is enriched in the stop

Protein name 3'-5' RNA helicase YTHDC2 (EC 3.6.4.13) (YTH domain-containing protein 2) (hYTHDC2)
Protein function 3'-5' RNA helicase that plays a key role in the male and female germline by promoting transition from mitotic to meiotic divisions in stem cells (PubMed:26318451, PubMed:29033321, PubMed:29970596). Specifically recognizes and binds N6-methyladen
