Protein arginine methyltransferase 5

Protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PRMT5 gene.[5][6] PRMT5 symmetrically dimethylates H2AR3, H4R3, H3R2, and H3R8 in vivo, all of which are linked to a range of transcriptional regulatory events.[7]

PRMT5 is a highly conserved arginine methyltransferase that translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus at embryonic day ~E8.5, and during preimplantation development at the ~4-cell stage.[8]

Model organisms have been used in the study of PRMT5 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Prmt5^{tm2a(EUCOMM)Wtsi}[14][15] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[16][17][18]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[12][19] Twenty five tests were carried out on mutant mice and two significant abnormalities were observed.[12] No homozygous mutant embryos were identified during gestation, and therefore none survived until weaning. The remaining tests were carried out on heterozygous mutant adult mice but no further abnormalities were observed.[12]

A conditional allele of Prmt5 in the mouse limb shows that it is essential for maintaining a progenitor population, as conditional mutants have limb defects [20]

Interactions

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 has been shown to interact with:

• CLNS1A,[21][22][23]
• Janus kinase 2,[24]
• SNRPD3,[23]
• SUPT5H,[25] and
• WD repeat-containing protein 77.[21]
• RIOK1 [26]
