About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for FTO:
This gene is a nuclear protein of the AlkB related non-haem iron and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenase superfamily but
the exact physiological function of this gene is not known. Other non-heme iron enzymes function to reverse alkylated
DNA and RNA damage by oxidative demethylation. Studies in mice and humans indicate a role in nervous and
cardiovascular systems and a strong association with body mass index, obesity risk, and type 2 diabetes. (provided by
RefSeq, Jul 2011)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: FTO_HUMAN, Q9C0B1
Function: Dioxygenase that repairs alkylated DNA and RNA by oxidative demethylation. Has highest activity towards
single-stranded RNA containing 3-methyluracil, followed by single-stranded DNA containing 3-methylthymine. Has low
demethylase activity towards single-stranded DNA containing 1-methyladenine or 3-methylcytosine. Has no activity
towards 1-methylguanine. Has no detectable activity towards double-stranded DNA. Requires molecular oxygen,
alpha-ketoglutarate and iron. Contributes to the regulation of the global metabolic rate, energy expenditure and
energy homeostasis. Contributes to the regulation of body size and body fat accumulation

  • Defects in FTO are the cause of growth retardation developmental delay coarse facies and early death (GDFD)
  • [MIM:612938]. A severe polymalformation syndrome characterized by postnatal growth retardation, microcephaly, severe
    psychomotor delay, functional brain deficits and characteristic facial dysmorphism. In some patients, structural brain
    malformations, cardiac defects, genital anomalies, and cleft palate are observed. Early death occurs by the age of 3
    years
