Histone Arginine methylation is one of the most important epigenetic markers and is carried out by protein arginine methyltrasferase (PRMTs). Arginine residue can be either mono-methylated or symmetric/asymmetric dimethylated. Histone Arginine methylation/Demethylation involves in a variety of biological process. Recently studies include the finding that Arginine methylation at histone H3R2 controls deposition of H3K4 trimethylation (1) and the finding that symmetric dimethylation of H3R2 is a newly identified histone mark that supports euchromatin maintenance (2).
