Dual-site specificity of the archaeal tRNA m2G methyltransferase Trm14

Teppei Matsuda, Takashi Yokogawa, Soichiro Hidetaka, Manaka Sora, Aoi Ihara, Ayumu Toba, Kumpei Kawai, Go Norimoto, Akira Hirata, Hiroyuki Hori, Ryota Yamagami

This study shows that the archaeal Trm14 methyltransferase modifies both m2G6 and m2G67 in tRNAs and that these modifications are important for growth at high temperatures.

A transfer RNA methyltransferase with an unusual domain composition catalyzes 2'-O-methylation at position 6 in tRNA

Teppei Matsuda, Ryota Yamagami, Aoi Ihara, Takeo Suzuki, Akira Hirata, Hiroyuki Hori

This paper identifies TrmTS as a tRNA methyltransferase that catalyzes 2'-O-methylation at position 6 in tRNA, extending knowledge of tRNA methyltransferase architecture.
