    basic FUNCTION
  • required for the 2-thio modification of 5-taurinomethyl-2-thiouridine tRNA-Lys on the wobble position of the anticodon
  • putative nuclear modifier gene for the phenotypic expression of the deafness-associated 12S rRNA mutations
  • may act as a modifier gene, modulating the phenotypic expression of the deafness-associated A1491G or C1409T mutation in mitochondrial 12 S rRNA
  • participates in the modification of mitochondrial tRNAs and is therefore important for mitochondrial translation
  • may modulate the phenotypic manifestation of deafness-associated mitochondrial mutation
  • participates in the modification of mitochondrial tRNAs and is therefore important for mitochondrial translation
  • not required for mitochondrial translation at normal steady-state levels of tRNAs, but it may possess an as yet uncharacterized function in another sulfur-trafficking pathway
  • might be involved in the assembly of enzyme complexes containing iron
  • sulfur clusters
  • tRNA methyltransferase that dimethylates a single guanine residue at position 26 of most tRNAs using S-adenosyl methionine as the methyl group donor
