16S rRNA (guanine1516-N2)-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.242 yhiQ (gene) rsmJ (gene) m2G1516 methyltransferase) is an enzyme with system name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:16S rRNA (guanine1516-N2)-methyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction S-adenosyl-L-methionine + guanine1516 in 16S rRNA S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N2-methylguanine1516 in 16S rRNAThe enzyme specifically methylates guanine1516 at N2 in 16S rRNA.
