The evolutionarily conserved methyltransferase Trm10 modifies the N1 position of guanosine 9 (G9) in some tRNAs, but how the enzyme recognizes and modifies its substrate tRNAs remains unclear. Here, we used an S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) analog to trap the Trm10-tRNA(Gly) complex and enable determination of its structure in a post-catalytic state by cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM). We observed three distinct complexes: two with a single Trm10 bound to tRNA that differ in their tRNA acceptor stem orientation ("closed" and "open") and a minor population with two Trm10s engaging the same tRNA. The monomeric complexes reveal a positively charged surface that guides the G9 into the catalytic site with key conserved residues forming "pincer"-like interactions that stabilize the flipped methylated nucleotide. In the open tRNA conformation, the acceptor stem is rotated away from the enzyme, weakening the tRNA-protein contacts, consistent with a product-release conformation. The dimeric complex, which is supported by tRNA-dependent protein crosslinking, reveals one Trm10 positioned similarly to the monomeric complexes and engaged with G9, while the other Trm10 contacts distal tRNA regions, suggesting a potential role in facilitating a key conformational transition during the process of catalysis or modified tRNA release. Finally, molecular dynamics simulations comparing G9- and A9-containing complexes reveal that G9 is efficiently stabilized in the binding pocket unlike A9, identifying the structural basis for guanosine selectivity. Overall, these findings reveal the structural determinants of G9-specific tRNA methylation by Trm10 and suggest a unique mechanism of action among RNA-modifying SPOUT methyltransferases.
