Histone-Arginine Methyltransferase CARM1

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Histone-arginine methyltransferase CARM1 (585 aa, ~63 kDa) is encoded by the human CARM1 gene. This protein is involved in the mediation of protein methylation that, in turn, regulates both chromatin organization and transcription.

**Synonyms:** - Coactivator-Associated Arginine Methyltransferase 1 - EC 2.1.1.125 - Protein Arginine N-Methyltransferase 4
