‘Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is known to regulate the expression of genes involved in metastasis. Here, the authors show that PRMT5 methylates Akt and methylation is required for phosphorylation and activation of Akt; ultimately leading to the increase in expression of pro-metastatic transcription factors.
