FtsJ RNA methyltransferase homolog 1 (E. coli)

Symbol

FTSJ1 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

This gene encodes a member of the methyltransferase superfamily. The encoded protein localizes to the nucleolus, binds to S-adenosylmethionine, and may be involved in the processing and modification of ribosomal RNA. Mutations in this gene are associated with mental retardation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
