ALKBH8 is a member of the AlkB homolog (ALKBH) family of Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases, which are evolutionarily conserved enzymes involved in nucleic acid repair and modification. Initially identified as a human homolog of E. coli AlkB, ALKBH8 distinguishes itself from other ALKBH proteins (e.g., ALKBH2/3) by its dual functional domains. It contains an N-terminal catalytic domain for oxidative demethylation and a C-terminal RNA-recognition motif (RRM), suggesting roles in both DNA/RNA repair and post-transcriptional regulation.
Primarily, ALKBH8 catalyzes the methylation of transfer RNA (tRNA) at the wobble uridine position (mcm5s2U34), enhancing translational fidelity under stress conditions. This modification is critical for maintaining protein synthesis accuracy, particularly in response to oxidative or alkylation damage. Studies link ALKBH8 dysfunction to impaired stem cell differentiation, neurological disorders, and cancer progression. Its overexpression has been observed in tumors, where it promotes proliferation, metastasis, and chemoresistance by regulating oncogenic tRNA modifications and DNA damage response pathways.
ALKBH8’s activity is modulated by post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation and ubiquitination. Despite progress, its substrate specificity, regulatory mechanisms, and therapeutic potential in diseases remain under investigation, making it a focal point in epigenetics and translational medicine research.
