Target Details for PRMT2

Target: PRMT2 (Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 2 (PRMT2))

Alternative Name: PRMT2

Background:

Background Information: The protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) include a family of proteins with related putative methyltransferase domains that modify chromatin and regulate cellular transcription. PRMT2 inhibits NF-kappaB-dependent transcription and promotes apoptosis and it exerts this effect by blocking nuclear export of IkappaB-alpha through a leptomycin-sensitive pathway, increasing nuclear IkappaB-alpha and decreasing NF-kappaB DNA binding. PRMT2 also rendered cells susceptible to apoptosis by cytokines or cytotoxic drugs, likely due to its effects on NF-kappaB.
