A proteomic analysis of arginine-methylated protein complexes.
Arginine methylation is a post-translational modification that results in the formation of asymmetrical and symmetrical dimethylated arginines (a- and sDMA). This modification is catalyzed by type I and II protein-arginine methyltransferases (PRMT), respectively. The two major enzymes PRMT1 (type I) and PRMT5 (type II) preferentially methylate arginines located in RG-rich clusters. Arginine met...
متن کاملClipping of arginine-methylated histone tails by JMJD5 and JMJD7.
Two of the unsolved, important questions about epigenetics are: do histone arginine demethylases exist, and is the removal of histone tails by proteolysis a major epigenetic modification process? Here, we report that two orphan Jumonji C domain (JmjC)-containing proteins, JMJD5 and JMJD7, have divalent cation-dependent protease activities that preferentially cleave the tails of histones 2, 3, o...
متن کاملArginine/lysine-rich nuclear localization signals mediate interactions between dimeric STATs and importin alpha 5.
Interferon stimulation results in tyrosine phosphorylation, dimerization, and nuclear import of STATs (signal transducers and activators of transcription). Proteins to be targeted into the nucleus usually contain nuclear localization signals (NLSs), which interact with importin alpha. Importin alpha binds to importin beta, which docks the protein complex to nuclear pores, and the complex transl...
متن کاملSTATs and macrophage fusion
Macrophages play a pivotal role in host defense against multiple foreign materials such as bacteria, parasites and artificial devices. Some macrophage lineage cells, namely osteoclasts and foreign body giant cells (FBGCs), form multi-nuclear giant cells by the cell-cell fusion of mono-nuclear cells. Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing cells, and are formed in the presence of RANKL on the surface of ...
متن کاملFive friends of methylated chromatin target of protein-arginine-methyltransferase[prmt]-1 (chtop), a complex linking arginine methylation to desumoylation.
Chromatin target of Prmt1 (Chtop) is a vertebrate-specific chromatin-bound protein that plays an important role in transcriptional regulation. As its mechanism of action remains unclear, we identified Chtop-interacting proteins using a biotinylation-proteomics approach. Here we describe the identification and initial characterization of Five Friends of Methylated Chtop (5FMC). 5FMC is a nuclear...
