Arginine methylation is a widely distributed post-translational modification. Protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMTs) enzymes, which catalize this modification, have been described in parasitic protozoa. Recently, our research group showed the expression profile of the PRMT7 enzyme from Leishmania major (LmjPRMT7) during promastigote development and its implication in parasite virulenc…
Protozoan parasites of the Leishmania genus constitute a subject of great interest and extensive study in Molecular Biology. However, the biology of such microrganism is not yet well understood. Given the mainly post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in Leishmania spp. it is possible that different groups of RNA binding proteins play major functions in such control. Recently, …
Arginine methylation is an evolutionarily conserved protein post-translational modification. Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) have been described in several organisms from animals to early branching protozoa. We have recently identified several binding partners and putative LmjPRMT7 substrates in Leishmania major, including RNA binding proteins (RBP). LmjPRMT7-/- parasites exhi…
