This gene is a member of a family of methyltransferases that share homology with, but are distinct from, the UbiE family of methyltransferases. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, not all variants have been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function:
Probable S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that mediates 3-methylcytidine modification of some tRNAs.
Similarity:
Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. METL family.
