Gene information for PRMT8 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID56341
Official gene symbolPRMT8
Full nameprotein arginine methyltransferase 8
Aliases,HRMT1L3,HRMT1L4,
Gene summaryArginine 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]).[supplied by OMIM]
