Circumventing embryonic lethality with Lcmt1 deficiency: generation of hypomorphic Lcmt1 mice with reduced protein phosphatase 2A methyltransferase expression and defects in insulin signaling. [PDF]
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), the major serine/threonine phosphatase in eukaryotic cells, is a heterotrimeric protein composed of structural, catalytic, and targeting subunits.

A Pan-Inhibitor for Protein Arginine Methyltransferase Family Enzymes
Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) play important roles in transcription, splicing, DNA damage repair, RNA biology, and cellular metabolism. Thus, PRMTs have been attractive targets for various diseases. In this study, we reported the design and

Diagnostic, Therapeutic, and Prognostic Value of the m6A Writer Complex in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has poor prognosis and is usually diagnosed only at an advanced stage. Identification of novel biomarkers is critical to early diagnosis and better prognosis for HCC patients.

Non-CG methylation patterns shape the epigenetic landscape in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
DNA methylation occurs in CG and non-CG sequence contexts. Non-CG methylation is abundant in plants and is mediated by CHROMOMETHYLASE (CMT) and DOMAINS REARRANGED METHYLTRANSFERASE (DRM) proteins; however, its roles remain poorly understood.

Identification of a novel methyltransferase, Bmt2, responsible for the N-1-methyl-adenosine base modification of 25S rRNA in "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]
The 25S rRNA of yeast contains several base modifications in the functionally important regions. The enzymes responsible for most of these base modifications remained unknown.

PRMT5 function and targeting in cancer
Protein methyl transferases play critical roles in numerous regulatory pathways that underlie cancer development, progression and therapy-response. Here we discuss the function of PRMT5, a member of the nine-member PRMT family, in controlling oncogenic ...
