About Nsun5

Summary

Enables rRNA (cytosine-C5-)-methyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including central nervous system development; rRNA base methylation; and regulation of myelination. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to several human genes including NSUN5 (NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
