SYSTEMATIC NAME
IUBMB Comments
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:[protein]-L-arginine N-methyltransferase ([protein]-Nomega-methyl-L-arginine-forming)
Type III protein arginine methyltransferases catalyse the single methylation of one of the terminal nitrogen atoms of the guanidino group in an L-arginine residue within a protein. Unlike type I and type II protein arginine methyltransferases, which also catalyse this reaction, type III enzymes do not methylate the substrate any further. cf. EC 2.1.1.319, type I protein arginine methyltransferase, EC 2.1.1.320, type II protein arginine methyltransferase, and EC 2.1.1.322, type IV protein arginine methyltransferase.
