Trmt2b Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables rRNA (uridine-C5-)-methyltransferase activity and tRNA (uracil(54)-C5)-methyltransferase activity, S-adenosyl methionine-dependent. Predicted to be involved in rRNA methylation and tRNA processing. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in olfactory cortex ventricular layer and telencephalon ventricular layer. Orthologous to human TRMT2B (tRNA methyltransferase 2 homolog B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Trmt2b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
