UniProt functional annotation for Q84BQ9

UniProt code: Q84BQ9.

Organism: Thermus thermophilus (strain ATCC 27634 / DSM 579 / HB8).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Deinococcus-Thermus; Deinococci; Thermales; Thermaceae; Thermus.
 
Function: Methylates ribosomal protein L11 (PubMed:15317787). Preferentially recognizes free L11 before its incorporation into 50S subunits (PubMed:15317787). This function is dispensable for growth and thermostability (PubMed:15317787). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15317787}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=L-lysyl-[protein] + 3 S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 3 H(+) + N(6),N(6),N(6)-trimethyl-L-lysyl-[protein] + 3 S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:54192, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9752, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:13826, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:29969, ChEBI:CHEBI:57856, ChEBI:CHEBI:59789, ChEBI:CHEBI:61961; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_00735, ECO:0000305|PubMed:15317787};
Catalytic activity: Reaction=an N-terminal L-alpha-aminoacyl-[protein] + 3 S-adenosyl-L- methionine = an N-terminal trimethyl-L-alpha-aminoacyl-[protein] + 3 H(+) + 3 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:62916, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:10636, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:16230, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:57856, ChEBI:CHEBI:59789, ChEBI:CHEBI:78597, ChEBI:CHEBI:146135; Evidence={ECO:0000305|PubMed:15317787};
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00735}.
Domain: Contains an N-terminal substrate recognition domain and a C- terminal methyltransferase domain, connected by a flexible linker. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17215866, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18611379}.
Disruption phenotype: Mutant contains unmethylated protein L11 (PubMed:15317787). Null mutant is perfectly viable (PubMed:15317787). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15317787}.
Similarity: Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. PrmA family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00735, ECO:0000305}.
