**Background of FTO Recombinant Protein**
The fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) protein, encoded by the *FTO* gene, is an enzyme belonging to the AlkB family of non-heme Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases. Initially linked to obesity and metabolic disorders through genome-wide association studies, FTO gained attention for its role in regulating energy homeostasis and adipogenesis. Subsequent research revealed its enzymatic activity as an RNA demethylase, primarily targeting N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and other methyl modifications in RNA, influencing mRNA splicing, stability, and translation. This epigenetic regulatory function positions FTO as a critical player in cellular processes, including cell differentiation, proliferation, and stress responses.
Recombinant FTO protein is produced via heterologous expression systems (e.g., *E. coli* or mammalian cells) to study its structure, enzymatic mechanisms, and interactions. Purification typically involves affinity tags (e.g., His-tag) and chromatographic techniques. Its recombinant form enables *in vitro* assays to screen inhibitors or modulators, aiding drug development for obesity-related diseases, cancers, and neurological disorders linked to FTO dysregulation.
Current research focuses on resolving FTO's substrate specificity, structural dynamics, and tissue-specific roles. Challenges include understanding its dual cytoplasmic/nuclear localization and context-dependent effects on gene expression. Recombinant FTO tools are pivotal in dissecting its pathophysiological roles and advancing targeted therapies, particularly for diseases driven by aberrant RNA methylation.
