TAIR Computational Description | protein arginine methyltransferase 4A;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a type I protein arginine methyltransferase. PRMT4a can catalyze the asymmetric dimethylation of arginines 2,17, and 26 on histone 3 and can also methylate myelin basic protein in vitro. Double mutants lacking PRMT4a and 4b have reduced levels of histone 3 methylated at R17. These double mutants flower late due to defects in the autonomous pathway and they have elevated levels of FLC transcripts. |
