Sysname
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:adenine in U6 snRNA methyltransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + adenine in U6 snRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N6-methyladenine in U6 snRNA [RN:
R11953 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
S-adenosyl-L-methionine [CPD:
C00019 ];
adenine in U6 snRNA [CPD:
C21798 ]
Product
S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine [CPD:
C00021 ];
N6-methyladenine in U6 snRNA [CPD:
C21799 ]
Comment
This enzyme, found in vertebrates, methylates a specific adenine in a hairpin structure of snRNA. The effects of the binding of the methyltransferase to its substrate is important for the regulation of the activity of an isoform of EC
2.5.1.6 , methionine adenosyltransferase, that produces S-adenosyl-L-methionine [1,2]. The enzyme also binds (and maybe methylates) the lncRNAs XIST and MALAT1 as well as a number of pre-mRNAs at specific positions often found in the intronic regions [2].
