Post-transcriptional modification of nucleic acids including transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) is vital for fine-tunning of mRNA translation. Methylation is one of the most widespread post-transcriptional modifications in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. HsWBSCR22 and ScBUD23 encodes a 18S rRNA methyltransferase that positively regulates cell growth by mediating ribosome maturation in human and yeast, respectively.
