Short description: Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Protein arginine methyltransferase 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PRMT7 gene.[1] Arginine methylation is an apparently irreversible protein modification catalyzed by arginine methyltransferases, such as PMT7, using S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) as the methyl donor. Arginine methylation is implicated in signal transduction, RNA transport, and RNA splicing.[1][2]
