Comments:

Flavoprotein, using methyl-(or methylen)-tetrahydrofolate as a donor of one carbon. In a complex with GTPase MnmE they catalyze the formation of either cmnm5U or nm5U by reacting either with glycine or with ammonium. The choice between glycine and ammonium was shown to be influenced by growth phase and medium with glycine pathway being chosen in minimal medium and in exponential phase. However, in the case of tRNAGlncmnm5s2U the glycine pathway is always the dominant one and for tRNALeucmnm5Um the ammonium pathway was observed only in vitro. Mitochondrial homologue is Mto1. Not to be confused with bacterial Gid or small Gid (renamed TrmFO), also a flavoprotein displaying homology to N-terminus of MnmG (GidA) but catalysing a different reaction (m5U54 in tRNA).
