Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Involved in mitochondrial ribosome assembly. 5- methylcytosine rRNA methyltransferase that probably is involved in mitochondrial ribosome small subunit (SSU) maturation by methylation of mitochondrial 12S rRNA; the function is independent of MTERFD2/MTERF4 and assembled mitochondrial ribosome large subunit (LSU). Targeted to LSU by MTERFD2/MTERF4 and probably is involved in a final step in ribosome biogenesis to ensure that SSU and LSU are assembled. In vitro can methylate 16S rRNA of the LSU; the methylation is enhanced by MTERFD/MTERF4. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21531335, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23022348}.
