EC 2.1.1.56     
Accepted name: mRNA (guanine-N7)-methyltransferase
Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + a 5′-(5′-triphosphoguanosine)-[mRNA] = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + a 5′-(N7-methyl 5′-triphosphoguanosine)-[mRNA]
Glossary: a 5′-(5′-triphosphoguanosine)-[mRNA] = G5′ppp5′R-[mRNA]
a 5′-(N7-methyl 5′-triphosphoguanosine)-[mRNA] = m7G5′ppp5′R-[mRNA] = cap0
Other name(s): RNMT (gene name); ABD1 (gene name); messenger ribonucleate guanine 7-methyltransferase; guanine-7-methyltransferase; messenger RNA guanine 7-methyltransferase; S-adenosyl-L-methionine:mRNA (guanine-7-N)-methyltransferase
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:mRNA (guanine-N7)-methyltransferase
Comments: The terminal N7-methylguanosine facilitates gene expression in eukaryotic cells and is recognized by cap-binding proteins.
