| Primary Identifier | IPR044404 | Type | Domain |
| Short Name | PRDM4_PR/SET |
| description | This entry represents the PR/SET domain found in PR domain zinc finger protein 4 (PRDM4). PRDM4 may function as a transcription factor that recruits protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) to mediate histone arginine methylation and control neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation [].The PRDM family members are characterised by the presence of a N-terminal PR (PRDI-BF1 and RIZ1 homology) domain followed by multiple zinc fingers which confer DNA binding activity. PR domains are only distantly related to the classical SET methyltransferase domains []. They are involved in epigenetic regulation of gene expression through their intrinsic histone methyltransferase activity or via interactions with other chromatin modifying enzymes []. |
