TRNA (adenine²²-N¹)-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.217, TrmK, YqfN, Sp1610 (gene), tRNA: m1A22 methyltransferase) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:tRNA (adenine²²-N¹)-methyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + adenine²² in tRNA ⇌ S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N¹-methyladenine²² in tRNA

The enzyme specifically methylates adenine²² in tRNA.
