Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer. Herein we discover that the key glycolytic enzyme pyruvate kinase M2 isoform (PKM2), but not the related isoform PKM1, is methylated by co-activator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1). PKM2 methylation reversibly shifts the balance of met...
PASSEL ID: PASS00081. Original data file: B100910_042.mzXML. Data published as part of Mol Cell Proteomics. 2012 11:1489-99 . From the Abstract: {{i}} ... Here we show that most tryptic peptides containing methylated arginine(s) are highly basic and hydrophilic. Consequently, they could be consider...
Epigenetic mechanisms oversee epidermal homeostasis and oncogenesis. The identification of kinases controlling these processes has direct therapeutic implications. We show that ULK3 is a nuclear kinase with elevated expression levels in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) arising in multiple body sites,...
The files contain proteomics data for arginine methylation analysis using Immuno precipitation and HILIC approaches from different dvelopmental stages of P. falciparum
Protein arginine methylation, catalyzed by the protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) family, is recognized as a widespread post-translational modification (PTM) with implications in a plethora of biological processes in eukaryotes. PRMT proteins were classified into three types, type I, II and I...
In germ cells, Piwi proteins interact with a specific class of small non-coding RNAs, piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs). Together, these form a pathway that represses transposable elements, thus safeguarding germ cell genomes. While basic models describe the operation of piRNA pathways, neither the pr...
In current study, we developed a molecular affinity strategy based on the Tudor domain of SMN, a naturally occurring methylarginine reader protein, for comprehensive proteomic profiling of cellular arginine methylation. We demonstrated that the Tudor domain-based approach exhibits broad specificity ...
