- S-adenosyl-L-methionine + pseudouridine1191 in yeast 18S rRNA S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N1-methylpseudouridine1191 in yeast 18S rRNA
This enzyme recognizes specific pseudouridine residues (Psi) in small subunits of ribosomal RNA based on the local RNA structure.
A point mutation in the ribosome biogenesis factor Nep1 impairs its nucleolar localisation and RNA binding and causes the Bowen-Conradi syndrome. [4] .[5]
