This entry represents Bmt2 and its homogues. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Bmt2 is a nucleolar S-adenosylmethionine-dependent rRNA methyltransferase that is responsible for the N-1-methyl-adenosine base modification of 25S rRNA [1].It specifically methylates the N1 position of adenine 2142 in 25S rRNA [1].
