Also known as PPM2; TYW4

Gene ID: 9836 | Gene type: protein coding

About LCMT2

Cytogenetic location: 15q15.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:43,323,649-43,330,573 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 152 orthologues and 1 paralogue.

Summary

The protein encoded by this intronless gene belongs to the highly variable methyltransferase superfamily. This gene is the inferred homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae carboxymethyltransferase gene PPM2 that is essential for the synthesis of the hypermodified guanosine Wybutosine (yW).
