功能
Mitochondrial S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that mediates N(3)-methylcytidine modification of residue 32 of the tRNA anticodon loop of mitochondrial tRNA(Ser)(UCN) and tRNA(Thr) . N(3)-methylcytidine methylation modification regulates mitochondrial translation efficiency and is required for activity of the respiratory chain . N(3)-methylcytidine methylation of mitochondrial tRNA(Ser)(UCN) requires the formation of N(6)-dimethylallyladenosine(37) (i6A37) by TRIT1 as prerequisite . May also mediate N(3)-methylcytidine modification of mRNAs . The existence of N(3)-methylcytidine modification on mRNAs is however unclear, and additional evidences are required to confirm the role of the N(3)-methylcytidine-specific mRNA methyltransferase activity of METTL8 in vivo .

细胞定位
Mitochondrion . Mitochondrial protein: the cytoplasmic or nuclear localization observed by some groups is either the result of an incorrect localization caused by N-terminal tagging that interferes with mitochondrial targeting, or splice isoforms that lack the N-terminal mitochondrial transit sequence. .
