Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP05525
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2
Description Not Available
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name TET2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Catalyzes the conversion of methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC). Plays an important role in myelopoiesis. The clear function of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) is still unclear but it may influence chromatin structure and recruit specific factors or may constitute an intermediate component in cytosine demethylation.
