Crystal structure of project ID PH0725 from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3
Function
[DPHB_PYRHO] S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that catalyzes the trimethylation of the amino group of the modified target histidine residue in translation elongation factor 2 (EF-2), to form an intermediate called diphthine. The three successive methylation reactions represent the second step of diphthamide biosynthesis.[1]
