Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that catalyzes four methylations of the modified target histidine residue in translation elongation factor 2 (EF-2), to form an intermediate called diphthine methyl ester. The four successive methylation reactions represent the second step of diphthamide biosynthesis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P32469, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23486472}.
