protein-arginine omega-N symmetric methyltransferase activity

Term ID

GO:0035243

Synonyms

• protein arginine omega-N symmetric methylase activity
• protein arginine omega-N symmetric methyltransferase activity
• S-adenosyl-L-methionine:[protein]-L-arginine N-methyltransferase ([protein]-Nomega,Nomega'-dimethyl-L-arginine-forming)
• type II PRMT activity
• type II protein arginine methyltransferase activity

Definition

Catalysis of the addition of a second methyl group to methylated peptidyl-arginine. Methylation is on the terminal nitrogen (omega nitrogen) residue that is not already methylated, resulting in symmetrical peptidyl-N(omega),N'(omega)-dimethyled arginine residues. (2)
