Protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT5, recruited to TP53 (p53) by TTC5 (Strap), monomethylates TP53 on arginine residue R333 and dimethylates TP53 arginine residues R335 and R337. PRMT5-mediated methylation of TP53 modulates the affinity of TP53 for target promoters, promoting expression of cell cycle arrest genes rather than cell death genes (Jansson et al. 2008).
