RNA/DNA methyltransferase Rv2966c

UniProtKB accession:  I6XFS7

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  SAM-dependent methyltransferase that binds both to RNA and DNA (PubMed:21474448). Specifically methylates the guanine in position 966 of 16S rRNA in the 30S particle (PubMed:21474448). In addition, can methylate and modulate host cellular DNA within an infected mammalian cell, altering the host epigenetic machinery (PubMed:25824946). Binds to specific host DNA sequences and methylates cytosines predominantly in a non-CpG context (PubMed:25824946).
