General annotation (Comments)

Function

Specifically methylates the N1 position of guanosine-37 in various cytoplasmic and mitochondrial tRNAs. Methylation is not dependent on the nature of the nucleoside 5' of the target nucleoside. This is the first step in the biosynthesis of wybutosine (yW), a modified base adjacent to the anticodon of tRNAs and required for accurate decoding. Postspliced cytoplasmic tRNAs are imported into the nucleus, where this first step seems to take place, after which they are reexported to the cytoplasm, where the yW sythesis is completed by cytoplasmic enzymes. Ref.3 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.8

Catalytic activity

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine(37) in tRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N(1)-methylguanine(37) in tRNA.

Subunit structure

Monomer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion matrix. Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note: Predominantly in the mitochondria and in the nucleus. Ref.4 Ref.6 Ref.8

Miscellaneous

Present with 4120 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. Ref.5

It is unsure how the mitochondrial and cytoplasmic forms of this protein are produced. The cytoplasmic form may be produced by alternative initiation at a downstream in-frame AUG codon at position 34, lacking a mitochondrial transit peptide.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the TRM5 / TYW2 family.
