Cap methyltransferase 1 (CMTR1)

MTR1; FTSJD2; ISG95; FtsJ Methyltransferase Domain Containing Protein 2; Interferon-stimulated gene 95 kDa protein; Cap-specific mRNA (nucleoside-2'-O-)-methyltransferase 1

Cap methyltransferase 1 (CMTR1)
Porphyria cutanea tarda is associated with chromosome 6 through the HFE gene which, when mutated, predisposes an individual to developing this porphyria. Notably, the PARK2 gene, which is associated with Parkinson’s disease, and the genes encoding the major histocompatiblity complex proteins, which are key molecular components of the immune system and determine predisposition to rheumatic diseases, are also located on chromosome 6. Stickler syndrome, 21-hydroxylase deficiency and maple syrup urine disease are also associated with genes on chromosome 6. A bipolar disorder susceptibility locus has been identified on the q arm of chromosome 6. The protein is encoded by the FTSJD2 (FtsJ methyltransferase domain containing 2) gene, which maps to human chromosome 6p21.2.
