Tet_JBPOxygenase domain of the 2OGFeDO superfamily | |

| SMART ACC: | SM001333 |
| Description: | A double-stranded beta helix (DSBH) fold domain of the 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenase (2OGFeDO) superfamily found in various eukaryotes, bacteria and bacteriophages (PMID:19411852). Members of this family catalyze nucleic acid modifications, such as thymidine hydroxylation during base J synthesis in kinetoplastids (PMID:20215442) and the conversion of 5 methyl-cytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine (hmC) (PMID:19372391) or further oxidation to 5-formylcytosine (5fC) and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) (PMID:21817016). Metazoan TET proteins contain a cysteine-rich region inserted into the core of the DSBH fold. Vertebrate TET proteins are oncogenes that are mutated in various myeloid cancers (PMID:21057493). Fungal and algal versions of this family are linked to a predicted transposase and show lineage-specific expansions (PMID:19411852). |

| InterPro abstract: | The pattern of DNA methylation at cytosine bases in the genome is tightly linked to gene expression [ PUBMED:27036965 ]. TET proteins, including TET1/2/3, convert 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. They can also convert 5-methylcytosine to 5-formylcytosine and 5-carboxylcytosine [ PUBMED:21778364 … expand |
