Generation of truncation constructs of NRMT1. Full-length FLAG-tagged NRMT1 only weakly interacts with the first 112 aa of NRMT2, though strongly interacts with a GFP-tagged NRMT2 fragment (amino acids 77-223) that is missing the 59 aa tail that is also lacking from the crystal structure and subsequent model. Full-length FLAG-tagged NRMT2 strongly interacts with the first 59 aa of NRMT1, as well as, amino acids 52-172. There is a decreased interaction of FLAG-tagged NRMT2-FLAG with the C-terminal fragment of NRMT1 (amino acids 178-223). Generation of NRMT1 knockout mutant, NRMT2 overexpression cannot rescue NRMT1 knockout phenotypes 758296 2.1.1.244 additional information the intact dimethylated Rpl12ab species isolated from the YBR261C/tae1 deletion strain is fragmented, and a b20 ion is detected with the addition of one methyl group, suggesting partial methylation of lysine 3. Neither of these species is dimethylated at the N-terminal residue. Rps25a/Rps25b isolated from the YBR261C/tae1 deletion strain is 28 Da less than the wild type, and the fragmentation data indicate no methylation is present 717248 2.1.1.244 N168A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows highly reduced activity compared to wild-type 756877 2.1.1.244 N168K site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to the wild-type enzyme 736186 2.1.1.244 Q169K site-directed mutagenesis, inactive mutant 718160 2.1.1.244 S183K site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to the wild-type enzyme 718160 2.1.1.244 W136F site-directed mutagenesis, almost inactive mutant 736186 2.1.1.244 W136I site-directed mutagenesis, inactive mutant 736186 2.1.1.244 W136L site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows 92% reduced activity compared to wild-type 756877 2.1.1.244 Y19A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows highly reduced activity compared to wild-type 756877 2.1.1.244 Y19F site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows highly reduced activity compared to wild-type 756877 2.1.1.244 Y215A site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to wild-type 756877 2.1.1.244 Y215I site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to wild-type 756877
