| Background Descriptions | This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein that catalyzes the conversion of uridine residues to dihydrouridine in the D-loop of tRNA. The resulting modified bases confer enhanced regional flexibility to tRNA. The encoded protein may increase the rate of translation by inhibiting an interferon-induced protein kinase. This gene has been implicated in pulmonary carcinogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012] |

| Name | DUS2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | DUS2L |
| Function | Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent synthesis of dihydrouridine, a modified base found in the D-loop of most tRNAs (PubMed:15994936, PubMed:26429968, PubMed:30149704, PubMed:34798057, PubMed:38680565). Specifically modifies U20 in cytoplasmic tRNAs (PubMed:38680565). Activity depends on the presence of guanosine at position 19 in the tRNA substrate (PubMed:38680565). Negatively regulates the activation of EIF2AK2/PKR (PubMed:18096616). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Endoplasmic reticulum. Note=Mainly at the endoplasmic reticulum. |
| Tissue Location | Weak expression in heart, placenta and skeletal muscle. Up-regulated in most lung cancer cells (at protein level) |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
