From: Entamoeba histolytica: protein arginine transferase 1a methylates arginine residues and potentially modify the H4 histone

Figure 6

Detection and localization of EhPRMT1 proteins. (A) Alignment of the N-termini of EhPRMT1a, EhPRMT1b, EhPRMT1c, and EhPRMT-A with the corresponding fragment of HsPRMT1. Identical and similar residues to human PRMT1 are indicated in black and grey, respectively. %I, percentage of identity with the N-terminus of HsPRMT1 (B) Western blot assay on E. histolytica extracts using the α-PRMT1 commercial antibody. HeLa cells: positive control. (C) Confocal immunofluorescence assays on E. histolytica and HeLa cells using the α-PRMT1 antibody and subsequently a FITC-labeled secondary antibody (green). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Zy-plane: lateral images of the cells. Bar scale = 10 μm.
