| UniProt functional annotation for O60678 | |||
| UniProt code: O60678. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Methylates (mono and asymmetric dimethylation) the guanidino nitrogens of arginyl residues in some proteins. | |
| Activity regulation: | Inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide and high concentrations of zinc chloride. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subunit: | Monomer or homodimer (By similarity). Interacts with EPB41L3; this inhibits methylation of target proteins. Interacts with the 40S ribosomal protein RPS2. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15334060, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21059412, ECO:0000269|Ref.16}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. | |
| Domain: | The zinc-finger is responsible for substrate specificity. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Protein arginine N-methyltransferase family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU01015}. | |
