TRMT5 tRNA methyltransferase 5

Gene ID: 57570, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TRM5; PNSED; COXPD26; KIAA1393

Summary

tRNAs contain as many as 13 or 14 nucleotides that are modified posttranscriptionally by enzymes that are highly specific for particular nucleotides in the tRNA structure. TRMT5 methylates the N1 position of guanosine-37 (G37) in selected tRNAs using S-adenosyl methionine (Brule et al., 2004 [PubMed 15248782]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
