---|---|
Synonyms: | protein arginine N5-methylase activity, protein-arginine delta-N-methyltransferase activity, protein-arginine N5-methyltransferase activity, S-adenosyl-L-methionine:[protein]-L-arginine N-methyltransferase ([protein]-N5-methyl-L-arginine-forming), type IV PRMT activity, type IV protein arginine methyltransferase activity |
Definition: | Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the delta-nitrogen atom of peptidyl-arginine residues. The reaction is S-adenosyl-L-methionine + [protein]-L-arginine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + [protein]-N5-methyl-L-arginine. |
