Protein arginine N-methyltransferases, such as CARM1, catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the side chain nitrogens of arginine residues within proteins to form methylated arginine derivatives and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine. Protein arginine methylation has been implicated in signal transduction, metabolism of nascent pre-RNA, and transcriptional activation. CARM1 functions as a transcriptional co-activator for various nuclear receptors and NF-kB. It has also been shown to methylate histone H3 arginines, inhibiting the binding of corepressors and protecting chromatin from deacetylation, thereby facilitating transcription.
