Human PRMT7 (protein arginine methyltransferase 7), GenBank Accession No. NM_019023, a.a. 2-692(end) with N-terminal FLAG-tag, MW=80 kDa, expressed in Sf9 cells using a Baculovirus expression system.
host species: insect
Host species: insect
Host cell line: Sf9
Background
Three types of arginine methylation exist in mammalian cells: monomethylarginine (MMA), asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA). Type I PRMTs ((CARM1, PRMT1, PRMT2, PRMT3, PRMT6, and PRMT8) catalyze ADMA, while type II PRMTs (e.g. PRMTs 5 and 7) catalyze SDMA. Type II PRMTs are found to be strongly implicated in diseases like cancer. For example, PRMT5 plays a role in the repression of certain tumor suppressor genes such as RB tumor suppressors while PRMT7 overexpression is observed in breast cancer
