6. Text-mining results about the gene
Gene occurances in abstracts of cellular senescence-associated articles: 3 abstracts the gene occurs.
PubMed ID of the article | Sentenece the gene occurs |
---|---|
22987071 | Here, we report that protein arginine methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6), a type I PRMT known to act as a transcriptional cofactor, directly represses the p21 promoter |
22987071 | PRMT6 knock-down (KD) results in a p21 derepression in breast cancer cells, which is p53-independent, and leads to cell cycle arrest, cellular senescence and reduced growth in soft agar assays and in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice for all the cancer lines examined |
22987071 | We conclude that PRMT6 acts as an oncogene in breast cancer cells, promoting growth and preventing senescence, making it an attractive target for cancer therapy |
22904064 | Ablation of PRMT6 reveals a role as a negative transcriptional regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor |
22904064 | Protein arginine methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6) has been shown to function as a transcriptional repressor by methylating the histone H3 arginine 2 [H3R2(me2a)] repressive mark; however, few targets are known |
22904064 | To define the physiological role of PRMT6 and to identify its targets, we generated PRMT6(-/-) mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) |
22904064 | We observed that early passage PRMT6(-/-) MEFs had growth defects and exhibited the hallmarks of cellular senescence |
22904064 | PRMT6(-/-) MEFs displayed high transcriptional levels of p53 and its targets, p21 and PML |
22904064 | Generation of PRMT6(-/-); p53(-/-) MEFs prevented the premature senescence, suggesting that the induction of senescence is p53-dependent |
22904064 | Using chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, we observed an enrichment of PRMT6 and H3R2(me2a) within the upstream region of Trp53 |
22904064 | The PRMT6 association and the H3R2(me2a) mark were lost in PRMT6(-/-) MEFs and an increase in the H3K4(me3) activator mark was observed |
22904064 | Our findings define a new regulator of p53 transcriptional regulation and define a role for PRMT6 and arginine methylation in cellular senescence |
18676353 | When the expression of protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs), namely PRMT1, PRMT4, PRMT5 and PRMT6 was examined, a significant reduction was found in replicatively senescent cells as well as their catalytic activities against histone mixtures compared with the young cells |
18676353 | Furthermore, when the endogenous level of arginine-dimethylated proteins was determined, asymmetric modification (the product of type I PRMTs including PRMT1, PRMT4 and PRMT6) was markedly down-regulated |
