ChIP - Anti-mono and dimethyl Arginine antibody [7E6] (AB412)

Sonicated Chromatin prepared from untreated or 17beta-estradiol (E2) treated MCF7 cells was subjected to the ChIP procedure (see protocol) with ab412 to mono and dimethyl Arginine.

Immunoprecipitated chromatin was analysed in the proximal region of the estrogen-responsive pS2 promoter (as shown above) and quantified by real-time PCR (values are % of inputs). The primers are designed to follow the nucleosome E (including the Estrogen Responsive Element ERE). 3 μl of ab412 and 4x106 cells were used in each ChIP experiment.

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-mono and dimethyl Arginine antibody [7E6] (AB412)

Cell extracts were suspended in 250 μl of immunoprecipitation buffer (150 mM NaCl,50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 1 mM EDTA, 0.2% (v/v) Nonidet P40, 2 mM PMSF, 0.1% (w/v) SDS and a protease-inhibitor cocktail. Protein extracts (200 μg) were incubated with antibodies to RIP140, 14-3-3, or PRMT1 overnight at 4°C, and precipitated with protein G–agarose beads for 1–2 hours. ab412 was then used (amongst other antibodies) in Western Blot. Reduced protein inputs were used for ectopic expression of RIP140 to avoid saturation.

Product details

This antibody will be of central importance in analysing the methylation status of chromatin and transcription factors. Since it recognises both dimethyl and monomethyl arginine it can be used in parallel with ab413 (detects dimethyl arginine only) and ab414 (detects monomethyl arginine only) to monitor the exact modification status. A tissue culture supernatant version is available as ab5394.

Supplementary information

Mono and dimethyl arginine also known as methylarginine are modified forms of the amino acid arginine. This modification known as arginine methylation involves the addition of one (mono) or two (di) methyl groups to the nitrogen atoms of arginine residues in proteins. This process is mediated by protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) and affects the physicochemical properties of proteins altering their function. Methylarginine is found in various cellular compartments including the nucleus and cytoplasm and is common in eukaryotic cells.
Biological function summary

Arginine methylation influences protein-protein interactions RNA binding and signal transduction. Methylated arginine residues often form part of larger protein complexes that regulate transcriptional processes. As a result mono and dimethyl arginine residues play critical roles in gene expression and act as regulators in signal transduction pathways. Additionally these modifications impact the splicing of pre-mRNA by altering the interaction with splicing factors.

Pathways

Arginine methylation participates in pathways like signal transduction and gene regulation. It has strong connections with proteins like histones and transcription factors which play functional roles in gene expression control. For example PRMTs methylate histones which affects the transcriptional state of chromatin. Methylated arginine residues also interact with the PI3K/Akt pathway which is important for cell growth and survival.

Irregularities in arginine methylation have links with cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Abnormal methylation patterns can disrupt normal cell regulation contributing to oncogenesis and tumor progression. Proteins such as PRMT1 and CARM1 associated with methylated arginine are often implicated in these pathological conditions. In cardiovascular contexts asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) a competitive inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase can contribute to endothelial dysfunction playing a role in the development of atherosclerosis.
