QuickView for Dnmt3a (gene)


Gene Symbol:
DNMT3A Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
DNA methyltransferase 3 alpha
Synonyms:
DNMT3A2, M.HsaIIIA, TBRS, DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 3A, DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase 3 alpha, DNA MTase HsaIIIA, DNA cytosine methyltransferase 3A2
Genomic Location:
Chr 2: 25309349-25418963
Description:
CpG methylation is an epigenetic modification that is important for embryonic development, imprinting, and X-chromosome inactivation. Studies in mice have demonstrated that DNA methylation is required for mammalian development. This gene encodes a DNA methyltransferase that is thought to function in de novo methylation, rather than maintenance meth...
