S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine2445 in 23S rRNA |
Escherichia coli |
N2-methylguanosine2445 of the 23S rRNA is located in a cluster of modified nucleotides concentrated at the peptidyl transferase center of the ribosome. It is likely that the G2445 modification is necessary for prevention of nonfunctional secondary or tertiary structure formation at the peptidyl transferase center |

malfunction |
knock-out of the ycbY gene leads to loss of modification at G2445 and growth retardation. Growth competition with the parental wild-type strain leads to a gradual decrease in the knock-out strain cells proportion in the media |
