Structural highlights
Disease
THADA_HUMAN Chromosomal aberrations involving THADA have been observed in benign thyroid adenomas. Translocation t(2;3)(p21;p25) and translocation t(2;7)(p21;p15); the sequences derived from chromosomes 3p25 and 7p15 do not appear to include a coding region and the fusion events probably result in truncated THADA proteins.
Function
THADA_HUMAN Together with methyltransferase FTSJ1, methylates the 2'-O-ribose of nucleotides at position 32 of the anticodon loop of substrate tRNAs.[1]
