23S rRNA (guanine2069-N7)-methyltransferase

Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme 23S rRNA (guanine²⁰⁶⁹-N⁷)-methyltransferase (Template:EC number, rlmK (gene), 23S rRNA m7G2069 methyltransferase) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:23S rRNA (guanine²⁰⁶⁹-N⁷)-methyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine²⁰⁶⁹ in 23S rRNA $\rightleftharpoons$ S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N⁷-methylguanine²⁰⁶⁹ in 23S rRNA

The enzyme specifically methylates guanine²⁰⁶⁹ at position N⁷ in 23S rRNA.
