| Post Translational Modifications | Ubiquitinated.undergoes 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitination. OTUD4 promotes USP7 and USP9X-dependent deubiquitination of 'Lys-48'-polyubiquitinated ALKBH3 promoting the repair of alkylated DNA lesions. |
| Function | Dioxygenase that mediates demethylation of DNA and RNA containing 1-methyladenosine (m1A). Repairs alkylated DNA containing 1-methyladenosine (m1A) and 3-methylcytosine (m3C) by oxidative demethylation. Has a strong preference for single-stranded DNA. Able to process alkylated m3C within double-stranded regions via its interaction with ASCC3, which promotes DNA unwinding to generate single-stranded substrate needed for ALKBH3. Can repair exocyclic 3,N4-ethenocytosine adducs in single-stranded DNA. Also acts on RNA. Demethylates N(1)-methyladenosine (m1A) RNA, an epigenetic internal modification of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) highly enriched within 5'-untranslated regions (UTRs) and in the vicinity of start codons. Requires molecular oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate and iron. |
