FunFam 75: NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase 2

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
TRNA (cytosine(34)-C(5))-methyltransferase. [EC: 2.1.1.203]
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cytosine(34) in tRNA precursor = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + 5-methylcytosine(34) in tRNA precursor.
  • The human enzyme is specific for C(5)-methylation of cytosine(34) in tRNA precursors.
  • The intron in the human pre-tRNA(Leu)(CAA) is indispensable for the C(5)-methylation of cytosine in the first position of the anticodon.
  • It is not able to form 5-methylcytosine at positions 48 and 49 of human and yeast tRNA precursors.
  • Formerly EC 2.1.1.29.
