Anti-PRMT7 antibodies were purchased from Epicypher (#13-1009), Santa Cruz Biotechnology (SC9882) and Millipore (#07-639). Anti-Nanog (#61419), anti-Sox2 (#39823) and anti-H4R3me2s (#61187) antibodies were from Active Motif. Anti-Oct4 (#2840), anti-c-Myc (#5605) and anti-Klf4 (#4038) antibodies were from Cell Signaling. Anti-β-actin antibody (A5441) was from Sigma-Aldrich. Anti-H4R3me1 antibody (PA5-27065) was from Thermo Scientific. Anti-H3 antibody (ab1791) was from Abcam. Anti-mouse Argonaute 2 (Ago2) antibody was from Wako Chemicals (292-67301) and Cell Signaling (2897P). The cDNA constructs of human (OpenBiosystem) and mouse PRMT7 (OpenBiosystem) were cloned into pCDH1-EF1-IRES-GFP vector (System Biosciences) using the cloning sites EcoRI and NotI. Human PRMT7's catalytic mutant (m. PRMT7) was generated from pCDH1-EF1-PRMT7-IRES-GFP by mutating several residues (E144A, E153A, E478A and H644A) using the QuickChange Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit (Stratagene). These residues are likely located in arginine binding pockets according to crystal structures of PRMT1 and Caenorhabditis elegans PRMT7 (18 (link),19 (link)). Oligonucleotides used for cloning, ChIP-PCR, reverse-transcription (RT)-PCR, site-directed mutagenesis are listed in Supplementary Table S1.
