Crystallographic capture of a radical S-adenosylmethionine enzyme in the act of modifying tRNA

RlmN is a dual-specificity RNA methylase that modifies C2 of adenosine 2503 (A2503) in 23S rRNA and C2 of adenosine 37 (A37) in several Escherichia coli tRNAs. A related methylase, Cfr, modifies C8 of A2503 by a similar mechanism, conferring resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics. Herein, we...
