Abstract
Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) are increasingly recognized as potential therapeutic targets but PRMT7 remains an understudied member of this enzyme family. Here, the authors develop a chemical probe for PRMT7 and apply it to elucidate the role of PRMT7 in the cellular stress response.
