Cap Analog Binding (Guanosine 5'-Triphosphate)
binds to the enzyme in a pocket near AdoHcy. (Tyr 145, Leu216, Leu217, Asp218, Ser219, Tyr284) are involded in the binding of the cap analog. The cap makes Van der Walls contacts with side chains fromGTP makes a hydrogen bond with and and a water mediated bond with. [1]

As we can see on the figure above[2] , the enzyme specifically binds to guanine. This specificity is achieved through the recognition by the enzyme residues through hydrogen bonds of the guanineWe remark also that the methyltransferase is not able to discrminate between ribose and desoxyribose nucleoside sugars.
AdoHcy Binding (S-Adenosyl-L-Homocysteine)
The mRNA Cap Methyltransferase bind to which is the product of the methyl donor AdoMet after the methylation. AdoHcys is in a pocket formed by amino acids of segment 2.(Lys54, Gly72, Asp78, Asp94, Ile95, Asp122, Ser124, Gln140, Phe141, Ser142) are involved in the stabilisation of AdoHcys.
The interactions between AdoHcys and the enzyme are made of : - Hydrogen bonds mediated by - Van der Walls interactions mediated by - An electrostatic interaction mediated by- A water mediated contact mediated by [1]
Mechanism
This enzyme catalyse N-methyl transfer from AdoMet (S-adenosylmethionine) to GpppRNA, this reaction produce 7-methyl-GpppRNA and AdoHcy. This reaction is made through a SN2 mechanism. We remark that there is no contact between the enzyme and or the AdoMet methyl carbon.Indeed the enzyme does not stabilize the transition state of the chemical reaction, does not promote the activation of the nucleophile or the expulsion of the leaving group. mRNA Cap Methyltransferase brings the two substrates closer and orientates the substrates to facilitate the methyl transfer.
