Methyltransferase cap1.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8N1G2
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + a 5'-(N(7)-methyl 5'-triphosphoguanosine)- (purine-ribonucleotide)-[mRNA] = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + a 5'-(N(7)- methyl 5'-triphosphoguanosine)-(2'-O-methyl-purine-ribonucleotide)- [mRNA].
-!- This enzyme catalyzes the methylation of the ribose on the first transcribed nucleotide of mRNA or snRNA molecules, which may be either guanosine or adenosine. -!- This methylation event is known as cap1, and occurs in all mRNAs and snRNAs of higher eukaryotes, including insects, vertebrates and their viruses. -!- The human enzyme can also methylate mRNA molecules that lack methylation on the capping 5'-triphosphoguanosine. -!- Formerly EC 2.1.1.58.
