EC 2.1.1.199     
Accepted name: 16S rRNA (cytosine1402-N4)-methyltransferase
Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cytosine1402 in 16S rRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N4-methylcytosine1402 in 16S rRNA
Other name(s): RsmH; MraW
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:16S rRNA (cytosine1402-N4)-methyltransferase
Comments: RsmH catalyses the N4-methylation of cytosine1402 and RsmI (EC 2.1.1.198) catalyses the 2′-O-methylation of cytosine1402 in 16S rRNA. Both methylations are necessary for efficient translation initiation at the UUG and GUG codons.
