    Summary
    Efficient translation of mitochondrial-derived transcripts requires proper assembly of the large subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome. Central to the biogenesis of this large subunit is the A-loop of mitochondrial 16S rRNA, which is modified by three rRNA methyltransferases located near mtDNA nucleoids. The protein encoded by this gene methylates G(1370) of 16S rRNA, and this modification is necessary for proper ribosomal large subnit assembly. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
