16S rRNA (cytidine1402-2'-O)-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.198, RsmI, YraL) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:16S rRNA (cytidine1402-2'-O)-methyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cytidine1402 in 16S rRNA S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 2'-O-methylcytidine1402 in 16S rRNA

RsmI catalyses the 2'-O-methylation of cytidine1402.
