Gene Information

human ... TRMT61B(55006)

General description

The tRNA methyltransferase 61B (TRMT61B) gene is mapped to human chromosome 2p23.2. TRMT61B protein encoded by this gene is primarily localized to mitochondria. The encoded protein forms a homotetrameric structure similar to bacterial methyltransferase (TrmI). Human Trmt61B is characterized with C-terminal Flag tag containing 334 amino acids.

Potential tRNA recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Methyltransferase encoded by the gene tRNA methyltransferase 61B (TRMT61B) plays a vital role in 1-methyladenosine (m1A) A58 formation in human mitochondrial tRNAs. TRMT61B catalyzes the methylation of 16S rRNA present in mitochondria and it is also involved in tRNA metabolic process. This protein is considered as the first vertebrate methyltransferase that alters both tRNA and rRNAs.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

In human mitochondria, 1-methyladenosine (m¹A) occurs at position 58 of tRNA(Leu(UUR)). In addition, partial m¹A58 modifications have been found in human mitochondrial tRNA(Lys) and tRNA(Ser(UCN)). We identified human Trmt61B, which encodes a mitochondria-specific tRNA methyltransferase responsible for m¹A58 in these
