| peptide chain release factor N5-glutamine methyltransferase M-CSA #703 | Post translational methylation of release factors on the glutamine residue of a conserved GGQ motif is required for efficient termination of protein synthesis. This methylation is performed by an N5-glutamine methyltransferase called HemK. Release factor 1 and 2 contain a conserved GGQ motif that is thought to play a role in activating or positioning the water molecule involved in hydrolysis at the peptidyl transferase active site. | Defined by 3 residues: PHE:A-112 [auth A-100]ASN:A-209 [auth A-197]PRO:A-210 [auth A-198] | EC: 2.1.1 (PDB Primary Data) EC: 2.1.1.297 (UniProt) |
