Category:GO:0036261 ! 7-methylguanosine cap hypermethylation
name: 7-methylguanosine cap hypermethylation
namespace: biological_process
def: "Hypermethylation of the 7-(mono)methylguanosine (m(7)G) cap structure at the 2' position of the guanosine residue to convert a mono-methylated cap to a 2,2,7-trimethylguanosine cap structure. This type of cap modification occurs on small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) and small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and is dependent on prior guanine-N7 methylation."
