Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + uridine2791 in 21S rRNA = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 2'-O-methyluridine2791 in 21S rRNA
Other name(s): MRM2 (gene name); mitochondrial 21S rRNA methyltransferase; mitochondrial rRNA MTase 2
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:21S rRNA (uridine2791-2'-O-)-methyltransferase
Comments: The enzyme catalyses the methylation of uridine2791 of mitochondrial 21S rRNA.
