evolution | YccW directed methylation at nucleotide C1962 is conserved in bacteria | Escherichia coli |
malfunction | inactivation of the yccW gene leads to loss of methylation at nucleotide 1962 in Escherichia coli 23S rRNA. This methylation is restored by complementing the knockout strain with a plasmid-encoded copy of the yccW gene. Loss of this methylation in Escherichia coli results in a slight growth defect compared to wild-type cells during competitive growth experiments in rich or minimal medium | Escherichia coli |
