Superfamily Vaccinia Virus protein VP39
Functional Family Ribosomal RNA small subunit methyltransferase C

Enzyme Information

2.1.1.172
16S rRNA (guanine(1207)-N(2))-methyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt P39406
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine(1207) in 16S rRNA = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + N(2)-methylguanine(1207) in 16S rRNA.
-!- The enzyme reacts well with 30S subunits reconstituted from 16S RNA transcripts and 30S proteins but is almost inactive with the corresponding free RNA. -!- The enzyme specifically methylates guanine(1207) at N(2) in 16S rRNA. -!- Formerly EC 2.1.1.52.
