dimethyladenosine transferase; DIM1 dimethyladenosine transferase 1 homolog; DIM1 dimethyladenosine transferase 1-like; probable 18S rRNA (adenine(1779)-N(6)/adenine(1780)-N(6))-dimethyltransferase; probable 18S rRNA dimethylase; probable S-adenosylmethionine-6-N',N'-adenosyl(rRNA) dimethyltransferase (DIMT1, DIMT1L, HUSSY-05)

Structure

• belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily, rRNA adenine N(6)-methyltransferase family

Compartment

nucleus, nucleolus

More general terms
