Evolutionary insights into Trm112-methytransferase holoenzymes involved in translation between archaea and eukaryotes

To clarify the function of Trm112 in archaea, we have characterized structurally and functionally its interaction network using Haloferax volcanii as model system. This led us to unravel that methyltransferases are also privileged Trm112 partners in archaea and that this Trm112 network is much more complex than anticipated from eukaryotic studies.
