Enzyme Information

2.1.1.184
23S rRNA (adenine(2085)-N(6))-dimethyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt P13956
2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + adenine(2085) in 23S rRNA = 2 S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + N(6)-dimethyladenine(2085) in 23S rRNA.
-!- ErmC is a methyltransferase that confers resistance to the macrolide- lincosamide-streptogramin B group of antibiotics by catalyzing the methylation of 23S rRNA at adenine(2085). -!- Formerly EC 2.1.1.48.
