Type: | Family | Name: | rRNA small subunit methyltransferase I |
Description: | Several uncharacterised proteins have been shown to share regions of similarities, including Escherichia colihypothetical protein yraL, and HI1654, the corresponding Haemophilus influenzaeprotein; Bacillus subtilishypothetical protein yabC; Helicobacter pylorihypothetical protein HP0552; Mycoplasma genitaliumand Mycoplasma pneumoniaehypothetical protein MG056; Mycobacterium tuberculosishypothetical protein MtCI237.19; and Synechocystis sp.(strain PCC 6803) hypothetical protein sll0818. These are proteins of about 30 to 34 kDa.Proteins in this entry catalyze the 2-O-methylation of the ribose of cytidine 1402 (C1402) in 16S rRNA. In vitro, active on the assembled 30S subunit, but not naked 16S rRNA or 70S ribosomes []. | Short Name: | rRNA_ssu_MeTfrase_I |
