Background Information
ALKBH8 (Alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase) is unique among the ALKBH family, since it harbors a 2-oxoglutarate and Fe(II)-dependent oxygenase domain as well as an RNA recognition motif and methyl transferase domain (PMID: 27329810). ALKBH8 is a "writer" enzyme that modifies the wobble uridine of tRNA and regulates protein translation, including that of selenoproteins (PMID: 38550277). ALKBH8 is highly expressed in high-grade, superficially and deeply invasive bladder cancer. ALKBH8 knockdown induces apoptosis in bladder cancer cells (PMID: 38550277).
