Recombinant human RNMT protein
RNMT (mRNA cap guanine-N7 methyltransferase), also known as MET, RG7MT1 or hCMT1c, is a widely expressed nuclear protein that belongs to the mRNA cap methyltransferase family. Cap-dependent mRNA translation requires the methylation of the mRNA guanosine cap by RNMT. RNMT catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from AdoMet (S-adenosylmethionine) to the GpppN end of the growing mRNA at the N-7 position, thereby producing AdoHyc (S-adenosylhomocysteine) and m7GpppN terminated RNA. Recombinant human RNMT protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
