Reaction: PRMT6 arginine methylates H3K4me2-Nucleosome at the THBS1 gene promoter

- in pathway: RUNX1 regulates genes involved in megakaryocyte differentiation and platelet function
The histone arginine methyltransferase PRMT6 asymmetrically dimethylates histone H3 on arginine residue R2 (R3 when taking into account the initiator methionine), thus creating the H3R2me2a mark on nucleosomes at the THBS1 gene promoter. Histone H3 arginine methylation by PRMT6 interferes with generation of the activating H3K4me3 mark at the THBS1 gene promoter, thus contributing to transcriptional repression (Michaud-Levesque and Richard 2009).
