IUBMB Comments
This enzyme catalyses the methylation of the ribose on the first transcribed nucleotide of mRNA or snRNA molecules. This methylation event is known as cap1, and occurs in all mRNAs and snRNAs of higher eukaryotes, including insects, vertebrates and their viruses. The human enzyme can also methylate mRNA molecules that lack methylation on the capping 5'-triphosphoguanosine .
