Prmt7 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable histone binding activity; protein-arginine N-methyltransferase activity; and ribonucleoprotein complex binding activity. Predicted to be involved in peptidyl-arginine methylation; regulation of gene expression; and spliceosomal snRNP assembly. Predicted to be located in cytosol; fibrillar center; and nucleoplasm. 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 rat 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.
