Prmt7 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables histone H4R3 methyltransferase activity and protein-arginine omega-N symmetric methyltransferase activity. Involved in genomic imprinting. Predicted to be located in cytosol; fibrillar center; and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including brain and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human PRMT7 (protein arginine methyltransferase 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Prmt7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
