Description
In Escherichia coli YfhQ is the only methyltransferase responsible for the formation of 2'-O-methylcytidine32 in tRNA. No methylation of cytosine34 in tRNALeu(CAA). In vitro the enzyme 2-O-methylates cytidine32 of tRNASer1 and uridine32 of tRNAGln2.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
YfhQ; tRNA:Cm32/Um32 methyltransferase; TrMet(Xm32); TrmJ
Reaction
(1) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cytidine32 in tRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 2'-O-methylcytidine32 in tRNA; (2) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + uridine32 in tRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 2'-O-methyluridine32 in tRNA
