Facts about Ribosomal RNA small subunit methyltransferase NEP1.
Is unable to methylate uridine at this position (PubMed:20047967). Has also an essential part in 40S ribosomal subunit biogenesis independent on its methyltransferase activity, facilitating the incorporation of ribosomal protein S19 through the formation of pre-ribosomes (By similarity).
