23S rRNA (uracil747-C5)-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.189, YbjF, RumB, RNA uridine methyltransferase B) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:23S rRNA (uracil747-C5)-methyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + uracil747 in 23S rRNA [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 5-methyluracil747 in 23S rRNA

The enzyme specifically methylates uracil747 at C5 in 23S rRNA.
