Emg1 - EMG1 N1-specific pseudouridine methyltransferase

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; rRNA (pseudouridine) methyltransferase activity; and rRNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within blastocyst development and nucleologenesis. Predicted to be located in chromosome and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of small-subunit processome. Predicted to be active in nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut; and integumental system. Used to study Bowen-Conradi syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Bowen-Conradi syndrome. Orthologous to human EMG1 (EMG1 N1-specific pseudouridine methyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
