Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Leu49 of human NRMT protein. Background N-terminal RCC1 methyltransferase (NRMT), formerly known as methyltransferase-like protein 11A (METTL11A), is a member of the methyltransferase 11 family of proteins and is the first α-N-methyltransferase to be discovered in humans (1-3). Amino-terminal methylation of free α-amino groups is a post-translational modification where an initiating Met residue is cleaved and the exposed α-amino group is mono-, di-, or trimethylated by NRMT (4). NRMT methylates proteins containing an amino-terminal Met-X-Pro-Lys motif, where X is an alanine, proline, or serine residue (4). Substrates of NRMT include the Ran guanine nucleotide-exchange factor (RCC1), SET/TAF-1/PHAP-II, retinoblastoma (Rb), and CENP-B (3-6). α-N-methylation of RCC1 is required for efficient binding to chromatin, securing normal bipolar spindle formation and chromosome segregation (3,5). α-N-methylation of CENP-B also appears to regulate CENP-B binding to centromeric DNA (6).
