Prmt6 - protein arginine N-methyltransferase 6

Enables chromatin binding activity and histone-arginine N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in peptidyl-arginine N-methylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular senescence; histone H3-R2 methylation; and negative regulation of nitrogen compound metabolic process. Predicted to be located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PRMT6 (protein arginine methyltransferase 6).
