Histone lysine methylation is important in early zebrafish development; however, the role of
histone arginine methylation in this process remains unclear. H3R2me2a, generated by …

Dear Editor, Epiboly, the thinning and spreading of blastoderm over the yolk cells, is the first
morphogenetic movement in zebrafish. Studies of zebrafish epiboly have provided insights …

Histone arginine methylation has emerged as an important histone modification involved in
gene regulation. Protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) 4 and 5 have been shown to …

Protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) 1 is the predominant type I methyltransferase in
mammals. In the present study, we used zebrafish (Danio rerio) as the model system to …

Protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) 1 is the most conserved and widely distributed
PRMT in eukaryotes. PRMT8 is a vertebrate-restricted paralogue of PRMT1 with an extra N …

Background Asymmetric arginine dimethylation of histone H4R3 to H4R3me2a by protein
arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) has been implicated to play a key role in gene …

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (Prmt5), conserved from yeast to humans, catalyzes
arginine's dimethylation in proteins. Prmt5 is necessary for embryonic development in mice …

ABSTRACT Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (Prmt5), a type II arginine
methyltransferase, symmetrically dimethylates arginine in nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins …

Human embryos of in vitro fertilization (IVF) are often susceptible to developmental arrest,
which greatly reduces the efficiency of IVF treatment. In recent years, it has been found that …

Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) are involved in many cellular processes via
the arginine methylation of histone or non-histone proteins. We examined the expression …
