    Summary
    Predicted to enable protein-arginine omega-N monomethyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in peptidyl-arginine methylation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in organism and ovary. Orthologous to human PRMT1 (protein arginine methyltransferase 1) and PRMT8 (protein arginine methyltransferase 8).
