MTQ2-TRM112 eRF1 methyltransferase complex Overview

GO Annotations consist of four mandatory components: a gene product, a term from one of the three Gene Ontology (GO) controlled vocabularies (Molecular Function, Biological Process, and Cellular Component), a reference, and an evidence code.


Summary
S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferase responsible for methylating Gln-182 present in the conserved GGQ motif of the eRF1 subunit of the class 1 peptide chain release factor eRF1-eRF3 complex. Methylation occurs in the presence of GTP. This terminates the translation of nascent peptides in response to the termination codons UAA, UAG and UGA. Uses S-adenosyl L-methionine as methyl donor.
GO Slim Terms

The yeast GO Slim terms are higher level terms that best represent the major S. cerevisiae biological processes, functions, and cellular components. The GO Slim terms listed here are the broader parent terms for the specific terms to which this gene product is annotated, and thus represent the more general processes, functions, and components in which it is involved.
