Description

OGFOD2 encodes a member of the 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) and iron-dependent oxygenase superfamily. The protein contains a conserved dioxygenase domain and is predicted to catalyze hydroxylation reactions on protein substrates. OGFOD2 is localized in the cytoplasm and nucleus, and its expression is ubiquitous across tissues. While its exact biological role is not fully characterized, it is implicated in cellular stress responses and may be involved in protein modification. The gene is located on chromosome 19q13.2 and is conserved across species.

Protein Summary

The OGFOD2 protein is a putative 2-oxoglutarate and iron-dependent oxygenase. It contains a conserved domain typical of dioxygenases that utilize Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate as cofactors to catalyze hydroxylation of protein substrates. The protein is predicted to localize to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Its exact substrates and biological functions remain to be fully defined, but it may play a role in post-translational modification and cellular stress responses.
