Summary
Predicted to enable tRNA methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial tRNA methylation and tRNA N1-guanine methylation. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion and nucleus. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial matrix. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 26. Orthologous to human TRMT5 (tRNA methyltransferase 5).
