- W2156211472 abstract "Type I protein arginine methyltransferases catalyze the formation of asymmetric ω-N G,N G-dimethylarginine residues by transferring methyl groups fromS-adenosyl-l-methionine to guanidino groups of arginine residues in a variety of eucaryotic proteins. The predominant type I enzyme activity is found in mammalian cells as a high molecular weight complex (300–400 kDa). In a previous study, this protein arginine methyltransferase activity was identified as an additional activity of 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (FDH) protein. However, immunodepletion of FDH activity in RAT1 cells and in murine tissue extracts with antibody to FDH does not diminish type I methyltransferase activity toward the methyl-accepting substrates glutathione S-transferase fibrillarin glycine arginine domain fusion protein or heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1. Similarly, immunodepletion with anti-FDH antibody does not remove the endogenous methylating activity for hypomethylated proteins present in extracts from adenosine dialdehyde-treated RAT1 cells. In contrast, anti-PRMT1 antibody can remove PRMT1 activity from RAT1 extracts, murine tissue extracts, and purified rat liver FDH preparations. Tissue extracts from FDH(+/+), FDH(+/−), and FDH(−/−) mice have similar protein arginine methyltransferase activities but high, intermediate, and undetectable FDH activities, respectively. Recombinant glutathioneS-transferase-PRMT1, but not purified FDH, can be cross-linked to the methyl-donor substrateS-adenosyl-l-methionine. We conclude that PRMT1 contributes the major type I protein arginine methyltransferase enzyme activity present in mammalian cells and tissues.

At least two types of protein arginineN- methyltransferase (PRMT)1 activities that transfer methyl groups fromS-adenosyl-l-methionine (AdoMet) to the guanidino group of arginine residues exist in mammalian cells (3.Lee H.W.

Type I PRMT enzymes catalyze the formation of ω-monomethylarginine and asymmetric ω-N G,N G-dimethylarginine.

Functions of type I arginine methylation in proteins may include regulation of transcription, modulation of the affinity of nucleic acid-binding proteins, regulation of interferon signaling pathways, and targeting of nuclear proteins (4.Gary J.D.

Genes Dev. 1998; 12: 679-691Crossref PubMed Scopus (250) Google Scholar). PRMT1, the first protein arginine N-methyltransferase in mammalian cells to be cloned, was discovered as a protein interacting with the immediate-early gene products BTG1 and TIS21 (12.Lin W.J.

BTG1 and TIS21 are negative regulators of cell growth whose overexpression in cells can lead to cell growth arrest (16.Rouault J.P. Rimokh R. Tessa C. Paranhos G. Ffrench M. Duret L. Garoccio M.

PRMT3 is a monomeric cytoplasmic protein whose activity overlaps with that of PRMT1 (13.Tang J. Gary J.D. Clarke S. Herschman H.R. J. Biol.

CARM1, the third active mammalian arginine methyltransferase to be discovered, was cloned as a protein interacting with the carboxyl-terminal region of p160 coactivator (14.Chen D. Ma H. Hong H.

PRMT1, PRMT2, PRMT3, CARM1, and yeast RMT1 all contain signature regions (I, post-I, -II, and -III) that constitute the core of the AdoMet-binding site (20.Kagan R.M. Clarke S. Arch. Biochem.

Sequence analysis identified the major polypeptide in this preparation as 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (FDH, EC 1.5.1.6), suggesting that the major protein arginine methyltransferase may be encoded by a gene encoding an enzyme involved in folate metabolism. FDH catalyzes (i) NADP+-dependent oxidation of 10-formyltetrahydrofolate (10-FTHF) to tetrahydrofolate, NADPH, and CO2; (ii) NADP+-independent hydrolysis of 10-FTHF to formate and tetrahydrofolate; and (iii) NADP+-dependent oxidation of 2-propanal (22.Cook R.J.

However, FDH does not contain any methyltransferase signature sequences (20.Kagan R.M. Clarke S. Arch. Biochem.

We used cultured rat cells and tissues from FDH(+/+), FDH(+/−), and FDH(−/−) mice to determine (i) which methyltransferase is the predominant type I protein arginine methyltransferase and (ii) whether the protein arginine methyltransferase activity in FDH enzyme preparations is catalyzed by the FDH enzyme or by a copurified, but distinct, methyltransferase.

Wagner C. Cook R.J. J. Biol. Chem. 1997; 272: 10266-10272Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (45) Google Scholar). However, FDH does not contain any methyltransferase signature sequences (20.Kagan R.M. Clarke S. Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 1994; 310: 417-427Crossref PubMed Scopus (419) Google Scholar). To understand further the relationship between the PRMT and FDH gene products, we sought to identify the major type I protein arginineN-methyltransferase in cells and tissues. We used cultured rat cells and tissues from FDH(+/+), FDH(+/−), and FDH(−/−) mice to determine (i) which methyltransferase is the predominant type I protein arginine methyltransferase and (ii) whether the protein arginine methyltransferase activity in FDH enzyme preparations is catalyzed by the FDH enzyme or by a copurified, but distinct, methyltransferase. We thank the members of the Herschman and Clarke labs for helpful discussions. We also thank Rick B. Dye (Vanderbilt University School of Medicine) for raising the FDH-deficient mice and purifying rat liver FDH." @default.
