Gene Information

human ... PRMT1(3276)

General description

Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) gene is localized on human chromosome 19q13.33. It is part of the type I PRMT family.

Specificity

Does not cross-react with PRMT2, 3, 4, and 5.

Immunogen

full length PRMT1. Does not cross-react with PRMT2, 3, 4, and 5.

Application

Anti-PRMT1 antibody, Mouse monoclonal has been used for Immunofluorescence and Western Blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) is crucial for the formation of asymmetric dimethylarginine. It can methylate Twist-1, a transcription factor. The protein also methylates histones and thus modulates transcription and protein activity. PRMT1 is involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition and may have a role in cancer.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2-8 C for up to one month. For prolonged storage, freeze in working aliquots at 20 C. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in frost-free freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilutions should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.

Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) catalyzes methylation of histones and other cellular proteins, and thus regulates gene transcription and protein activity. In antigen-induced pulmonary inflammation (AIPI) PRMT1 was up-regulated in the epithelium, while in chronic AIPI, increased PRMT1 shifted to
