Protein symmetric dimethylation is a key form of post-translational modification (PTM) that typically occurs on lysine (Lys) or arginine (Arg) residues. In symmetric dimethylation, two methyl groups are attached to the nitrogen atoms of the guanidinium group in arginine. This modification is crucial for regulating gene expression, chromatin remodeling, and signal transduction. It significantly impacts biological processes such as cell differentiation, immune response, and cancer progression. Compared to asymmetric dimethylation, symmetric dimethylation is more closely associated with gene silencing and chromatin condensation, making it a primary focus in the study of epigenetic regulation.
