Chemical compound and disease context of PRMT6

 

Associations of PRMT6 with chemical compounds

  • Upon retinoic acid-induced transcriptional activation of HoxA2 in a cell model of neuronal differentiation, PRMT6 recruitment and H3 R2 methylation are diminished and H3 K4 trimethylation increases at the gene [5].
  • We speculate that the increased catalytic efficiency of PRMT6 for methylated substrates combined with lower K(m) values for native protein methyl acceptors may obscure this distributive mechanism to produce an apparently processive mechanism [6].
