The DTWD2 (DTW domain containing 2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 5.

DTWD2 catalyzes the formation of 3-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)uridine (acp3U) at position 20a in the D-loop of several cytoplasmic tRNAs (acp3U(20a)). It also has a weak activity to form acp3U at position 20 in the D-loop of tRNAs (acp3U(20)).

DTWD2 is also known as -.
