Function Is likely the methyltransferase responsible for the addition of the methyl group in the formation of N6-methyl-N6- threonylcarbamoyladenosine at position 37 (m6t6A37) in some tRNAs species that read codons starting with adenosine. The methyl group of m6t6A37 appears to slightly improve the efficiency of the tRNA.
