eEF1A lysine and N-terminal methyltransferase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the METTL13 gene. The METTL13 protein is involved in regulating messenger RNA translation through methylation. In particular it methylates EEF1A1 and EEF1A2 at the residue ‘Gly-2’, and dimethylates them at ‘Lys-55’.
