dna甲基化是调控基因表达的一种表观遗传机制。这个基因编码的蛋白质是一种去甲基化酶，属于tet（ten-11易位）家族。tet蛋白家族成员在dna甲基化过程和基因激活中起着重要作用。[由RefSeq提供，2015年9月]
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism that is important for controlling gene expression. The protein encoded by this gene is a demethylase that belongs to the TET (ten-eleven translocation) family. Members of the TET protein family play a role in the DNA methylation process and gene activation. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
