gene geneOn this page
Summary
PRMT8 (protein arginine methyltransferase 8, HGNC:5188) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12p13.32, encoding Protein arginine N-methyltransferase 8 (Q9NR22). S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent and membrane-associated arginine methyltransferase that can both catalyze the formation of omega-N monomethylarginine (MMA) and asymmetrical dimethylarginine (aDMA) in proteins such as NIFK, myelin basic protein, histone H4, H2A and H2A/H2B dime….
Arginine methylation is a widespread posttranslational modification mediated by arginine methyltransferases, such as PRMT8. Arginine methylation is involved in a number of cellular processes, including DNA repair, RNA transcription, signal transduction, protein compartmentalization, and possibly protein translation (Lee et al., 2005 [PubMed 16051612]).

Protein arginine N-methyltransferase 8 — Q9NR22 (reviewed: Q9NR22)
Alternative names: Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein methyltransferase-like protein 4
All UniProt accessions (1): Q9NR22
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent and membrane-associated arginine methyltransferase that can both catalyze the formation of omega-N monomethylarginine (MMA) and asymmetrical dimethylarginine (aDMA) in proteins such as NIFK, myelin basic protein, histone H4, H2A and H2A/H2B dimer. Able to mono- and dimethylate EWS protein; however its precise role toward EWS remains unclear as it still interacts with fully methylated EWS.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Tetramer; individual homodimers associates to form a homotetramer. Homooctamer; individual homodimers associates to form a homooctamer and homooligomerization is required for proper localization to the cell membrane. Heterodimer with PRMT1; heterodimerization may recruit PRMT1 activity to the plasma membrane. Interacts with PRMT2 (via the SH3 domain). Interacts with FYN (via the SH3 domain). Interacts with EWS; independently of EWS methylation status.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane.
Tissue specificity. Brain-specific.
Domain organisation. The SH3-binding motifs mediate the interaction with SH3 domain-containing proteins such as PRMT2 and FYN, possibly leading to displace the N-terminal domain and activate the protein. The N-terminal region (1-60) inhibits the arginine N-methyltransferase activity.
Similarity. Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Protein arginine N-methyltransferase family. PRMT8 subfamily.
