FunctionCauses methylation
ProductPossible tRNA/rRNA methyltransferase
CommentsRv3579c, (MTCY06G11.26c), len: 322 aa. Possible tRNA/rRNA methyltransferase, equivalent, but longer 31 aa, to Q9CCW4|ML0324 putative methyltransferase from Mycobacterium leprae (278 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1517, E(): 3.4e-79, (83.75% identity in 277 aa overlap). Also highly similar to Q9L0Q5|SCD8A.09 from Streptomyces coelicolor (314 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 937, E(): 3.4e-46, (56.75% identity in 319 aa overlap); and similar to others e.g. Q06753|YACO_BACSU from Bacillus subtilis (249 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 616, E(): 4.9e-28, (41.05% identity in 246 aa overlap); Q9KGF2|BH0113 from Bacillus halodurans (249 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 596, E(): 6.7e-27, (38.5% identity in 244 aa overlap); P74328|Y955_SYNY3|SLR0955 from Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 (384 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 585, E(): 4e-26, (35.85% identity in 304 aa overlap); P39290|YJFH_ECOLI|B4180 from Escherichia coli strain K12 (243 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 521, E(): 1.2e-22, (38.1% identity in 244 aa overlap); etc. Equivalent to AAK48043 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551 (253 aa) but longer 69 aa. Possibly belongs to the RNA methyltransferase TrmH family.
