Abstract__ Background The HIV-1 Rev protein mediates nuclear export of unspliced and partially spliced viral RNA through interaction with the Rev response element RRE by means of an arginine rich motif that is similar to the one found in Tat. Since Tat is known to be asymmetrically arginine dimethylated by protein arginine methyltransferase 6 PRMT6 in its arginine rich motif we investigated whether the Rev protein could act as a substrate for this enzyme. Results Here we report the methylation of Rev due to a single arginine dimethylation in the N-terminal
