Protein Domain : mRNA capping enzyme, C-terminal IPR013846

Type  Domain
Description  This domain is found at the C terminus of the mRNA capping enzyme. The mRNA capping enzyme in yeasts is composed of two separate chains: alpha a mRNA guanyltransferase and beta an RNA 5'-triphosphate. X-ray crystallography reveals a large conformational change during guanyl transfer by mRNA capping enzymes [ ].Binding of the enzyme to nucleotides is specific to the GMP moiety of GTP. The viral mRNA capping enzyme is a monomer that transfers a GMP cap onto the end of mRNA that terminates with a 5'-diphosphate tail.
