16S rRNA (uracil(1498)-N(3))-methyltransferase
RNA methyltransferases modify nucleotides during ribosomal RNA maturation in a site-specific manner. The Escherichia coli member is specific for U1498 methylation [1][2]. [1]. 11763972.

RsmE family RNA methyltransferase
Members of this protein family, previously called conserved hypothetical protein TIGR00046, include the YggJ protein of E. coli, which has now been shown to methylate U1498 in 16S rRNA.
