Description
Predicted to enable 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase activity and ferrous iron binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cilium assembly; left/right pattern formation; and positive regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nuclear speck. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Orthologous to human FTO (FTO alpha-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase).
