Comment
This enzyme, characterized from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, methylates the the delta-nitrogen atom of arginine residues within proteins. Among its substrates are Arg67 of the ribosomal protein L12. cf. EC
2.1.1.319 , type I protein arginine methyltransferase, EC
2.1.1.320 , type II protein arginine methyltransferase, and EC
2.1.1.321 , type III protein arginine methyltransferase.
History
EC 2.1.1.322 created 2015
Orthology
