Protein
Ribosomal RNA small subunit methyltransferase G
Organism
Thermus thermophilus (strain HB8 / ATCC 27634 / DSM 579)
Function
Specifically methylates the N7 position of guanine in position 527 of 16S rRNA. Shows a marked preference for deproteinized 16S rRNA as substrate and is completely inactive with native 30S subunits as substrate.
Similarity
Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. RNA methyltransferase RsmG family.
