Enzyme Information

2.1.1.199
16S rRNA (cytosine(1402)-N(4))-methyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9WZX6
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cytosine(1402) in 16S rRNA = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + N(4)-methylcytosine(1402) in 16S rRNA.
-!- RsmH catalyzes the N(4)-methylation of cytosine(1402) and RsmI (EC 2.1.1.198) catalyzes the 2'-O-methylation of cytosine(1402) in 16S rRNA. -!- Both methylations are necessary for efficient translation initiation at the UUG and GUG codons.
