AbstractHelp

This enzyme EC:2.1.1.32 uses S-adenosyl-L-methionine to methylate tRNA:

S-AdoMet + tRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + tRNA containing N2-methylguanine

The TRM1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is necessary for the N2,N2-dimethylguanosine modification of both mitochondrial and cytoplasmic tRNAs [1]. The enzyme is found in both eukaryotes and archaea [2].
