Summary
FBL (fibrillarin rRNA 2’-O-methyltransferase, HGNC:3599) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.2, encoding rRNA 2’-O-methyltransferase fibrillarin (P22087). S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that has the ability to methylate both RNAs and proteins. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 98.8% of cancer cell lines).
This gene product is a component of a nucleolar small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) particle thought to participate in the first step in processing preribosomal RNA. It is associated with the U3, U8, and U13 small nuclear RNAs and is located in the dense fibrillar component (DFC) of the nucleolus. The encoded protein contains an N-terminal repetitive domain that is rich in glycine and arginine residues, like fibrillarins in other species. Its central region resembles an RNA-binding domain and contains an RNP consensus sequence. Antisera from approximately 8% of humans with the autoimmune disease scleroderma recognize fibrillarin.

Function. S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that has the ability to methylate both RNAs and proteins. Involved in pre-rRNA processing by catalyzing the site-specific 2’-hydroxyl methylation of ribose moieties in pre-ribosomal RNA. Site specificity is provided by a guide RNA that base pairs with the substrate. Methylation occurs at a characteristic distance from the sequence involved in base pairing with the guide RNA. Probably catalyzes 2’-O-methylation of U6 snRNAs in box C/D RNP complexes. U6 snRNA 2’-O-methylation is required for mRNA splicing fidelity. Also acts as a protein methyltransferase by mediating methylation of ‘Gln-105’ of histone H2A (H2AQ104me), a modification that impairs binding of the FACT complex and is specifically present at 35S ribosomal DNA locus. Part of the small subunit (SSU) processome, first precursor of the small eukaryotic ribosomal subunit. During the assembly of the SSU processome in the nucleolus, many ribosome biogenesis factors, an RNA chaperone and ribosomal proteins associate with the nascent pre-rRNA and work in concert to generate RNA folding, modifications, rearrangements and cleavage as well as targeted degradation of pre-ribosomal RNA by the RNA exosome.
Subunit / interactions. Component of box C/D small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein (snoRNP) particles that contain SNU13, FBL, NOP5 and NOP56, plus a guide RNA. It is associated with the U3, U8, U13, X and Y small nuclear RNAs. Component of several ribosomal and nucleolar protein complexes. Part of the small subunit (SSU) processome, composed of more than 70 proteins and the RNA chaperone small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) U3. Interacts with PRMT5 and UTP20. Interacts with DDX5 and C1QBP. Interacts with NOL11. Interacts with PIH1D1. Interacts with RRP1B. Interacts with NOLC1. Interacts with SDE2. Interacts with NOP2 and NOP56.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Nucleolus. Nucleoplasm.
Post-translational modifications. Ubiquitinated. Ubiquitination leads to proteasomal degradation. Deubiquitinated by USP36. By homology to other fibrillarins, some or all of the N-terminal domain arginines are modified to asymmetric dimethylarginine (DMA). Acetylated by CREBBP/CBP, preventing methylation of ‘Gln-105’ of histone H2A (H2AQ104me), without affecting rRNA methylation. Deacetylation by SIRT7 restores methylation of ‘Gln-105’ of histone H2A (H2AQ104me).
Similarity. Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. Fibrillarin family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 177 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
