Function
SPB1_YEAST Required for proper assembly of pre-ribosomal particles during the biogenesis of the 60S ribosomal subunit. Specifically methylates the guanosine in position 2922 of the 25S rRNA at the stage of 27S pre-rRNA maturation. Methylates also the uridine in position 2921 in the absence of methylation of this residue guided by snoRNA snR52 at the stage of 35S pre-rRNA maturation.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_03163][1] [2] [3]
