Structural insights into the specific recognition of mitochondrial ribosome-binding factor hsRBFA and 12 S rRNA by methyltransferase METTL15

Abstract Mitochondrial rRNA modifications are essential for mitoribosome assembly and its proper function. The m4C methyltransferase METTL15 maintains mitochondrial homeostasis by catalyzing m4C839 located in 12 S rRNA helix 44 (h44). This modification is essential to fine-tuning the ribosomal decod...
