General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information m1A58 MTase is composed of two subunits, a catalytic component, Trm61, and an RNA-binding component, Trm6. tRNAs bind across the dimer interface such that Trm6 from the opposing heterodimer brings A58 into the active site of Trm61. T-loop and D-loop are splayed apart showing how A58, normally buried in tRNA, becomes accessible for modification, mechanisms of modifying internal sites in folded tRNA, overview. 2Fold related tRNAs bind across the tetramer interface, active site structure analysis. m1A58 MTase uses induced fit to access its target base Homo sapiens
physiological function m1A58 modification of tRNA3Lys also has a role in replication of HIV in humans, human tRNA3 Lys is the primer for reverse transcription of HIV, the 3' end is complementary to the primer-binding site on HIV RNA. The complementarity ends at the 18th base, A58, which in tRNA3 Lys is modified to remove Watson-Crick pairing. tRNA m1A58 methyltransferase methylates N1 of A58, which is buried in the TPsiC-loop of tRNA, from cofactor S-adenosyl-L-methionine. This conserved tRNA modification is essential for stability of initiator tRNA Homo sapiens
