Crystal structure of Escherichia coli 23S rRNA (A2030-N6)- methyltransferase RlmJ

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23945937

Function

[RLMJ_ECOLI] Specifically methylates the adenine in position 2030 of 23S rRNA. Nascent 23S rRNA seems to be the natural substrate. Appears to be not necessary for ribosome assembly. Seems to be required for the utilization of extracellular DNA as the sole source of carbon and energy.[1] [2]

About this Structure

4blu is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Ecoli. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
