DIMT1 - DIM1 rRNA methyltransferase and ribosome maturation factor Gene
Also Known as DIM1; DIMT1L; HUSSY5; HSA9761
Species: Homo sapiens
About DIMT1
This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 212 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in urinary bladder (RPKM 12.5), lymph node (RPKM 11.7) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that is responsible for dimethylation of adjacent adenosines near the 18S rRNA decoding site. The encoded protein is essential for ribosome biogenesis, although its catalytic activity is not involved in the process. The yeast ortholog of this protein functions in the cytoplasm while this protein functions in the nucleus. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
