Crystal structure of the dengue virus methyltransferase bound to a 5'-capped octameric RNA.
The N-terminal domain of the flavivirus NS5 protein functions as a methyltransferase (MTase). It sequentially methylates the N7 and 2'-O positions of the viral RNA cap structure (GpppA→(7me)GpppA→(7me)GpppA(2'-O-me)). The same NS5 domain could also have a guanylyltransferase activity (GTP+...
