• Formulation Tris-based buffer50% glycerol
• Storage The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20˚C,-80˚C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20˚C,-80˚C.
  Notes:Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4˚C for up to one week.

Non-catalytic component of the 20S PRMT5-containing methyltransferase complex, which modifies specific arginines to dimethylarginines in several spliceosomal Sm proteins and histones. This modification targets Sm proteins to the survival of motor neurons (SMN) complex for assbly into small nuclear ribonucleoprotein core particles. Might play a role in transcription regulation. The 20S PRMT5-containing methyltransferase complex also methylates the Piwi proteins (PIWIL1, PIWIL2 and PIWIL4), methylation of Piwi proteins being required for the interaction with Tudor domain-containing proteins and subsequent localization to the meiotic nuage.

A novel WD repeat protein component of the methylosome binds Sm proteins.Friesen W.J., Wyce A., Paushkin S., Abel L., Rappsilber J., Mann M., Dreyfuss G.J. Biol. Chem. 277:8243-8247(2002)
