T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematological malignancy with no well-established prognostic biomarkers. We examined the expression of protein arginine methyltransferases across hematological malignancies and discovered high levels of <i>PRMT7</i> mRNA in T-ALL, particularly in the mature subtypes of T-ALL. The genetic deletion of <i>PRMT7</i> by CRISPR-Cas9 reduced the colony formation of T-ALL cells and changed arginine monomethylation patterns in protein complexes ...[more]
