Enzyme Information
| 2.1.1.173 | 23S rRNA (guanine(2445)-N(2))-methyltransferase. based on mapping to UniProt P75864 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine(2445) in 23S rRNA = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + N(2)-methylguanine(2445) in 23S rRNA. -!- The enzyme methylates 23S rRNA in vitro, assembled 50S subunits are not a substrate. -!- The enzyme specifically methylates guanine(2445) at N(2) in 23S rRNA. -!- Formerly EC 2.1.1.52. | 
| 2.1.1.264 | 23S rRNA (guanine(2069)-N(7))-methyltransferase. based on mapping to UniProt P75864 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine(2069) in 23S rRNA = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + N(7)-methylguanine(2069) in 23S rRNA. -!- The enzyme specifically methylates guanine(2069) at position N7 in 23S rRNA. -!- In gamma-proteobacteria the enzyme also catalyzes EC 2.1.1.173, while in beta-proteobacteria the activities are carried out by separate proteins. -!- The enzyme from the gamma-proteobacterium Escherichia coli has RNA unwinding activity as well. |
