Primary Identifier | IPR028589 | Type | Family |
Short Name | SPB1-like |
description | SPB1 is an adoMet-dependent rRNA methyltransferase required for proper assembly of pre-ribosomal particles during the biogenesis of the 60S ribosomal subunit []. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it specifically methylates the guanosine in position 2922 of the 25S rRNA at the stage of 27S pre-rRNA maturation []. It interacts with the snoRNA-associated proteins Nop1 and Nop58 []. FTSJ3, SPB1 homologue in humans, is associated with NIP7 (involved in the biogenesis of 40S subunit) and functions in pre-rRNA processing []. |
