mRNA Cap (Guanine-N7) Methyltransferase (Ecm1)

Contents |
Function
Structure
Interaction
Cap Analog Binding (7-methylguanosine-5-triphosphate-5-Guanosine)
binds to the enzyme in a pocket near the AdoHcy. are involded in the binding of the cap analog. The cap makes Van der Walls contacts, hydrogen bond and water mediated bond.
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, Van der Walls interactions,electrostatic interaction and water mediated contact. [1]
