CTCF and Its Multi-Partner Network for Chromatin Regulation

open access: yesCells, 2023
Architectural proteins are essential epigenetic regulators that play a critical role in organizing chromatin and controlling gene expression. CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) is a key architectural protein responsible for maintaining the intricate 3D ...

Demethylases Go Mental [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2010
Histone-modifying enzymes require recruitment to specific genomic loci in order to elicit their effects. In this issue, Kleine-Kohlbrecher et al. reveal how a histone demethylase is targeted to specific genes, thereby providing mechanistic insight into recruitment and regulation.

Removal of H3K27me3 by JMJ Proteins Controls Plant Development and Environmental Responses in Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) is a highly conserved repressive histone modification that signifies transcriptional repression in plants and animals.

Evolutionary History of RNA Modifications at N6-Adenosine Originating from the R-M System in Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Methylation at the N6-position of adenosine (N6mA) on mRNA (m6A) is one of the most widespread, highly selective and dynamically regulated RNA modifications and plays an important role in transcription and translation.

Histone Lysine Demethylase Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2016
The dynamic regulation of covalent modifications to histones is essential for maintaining genomic integrity and cell identity and is often compromised in cancer. Aberrant expression of histone lysine demethylases has been documented in many types of blood and solid tumors, and thus demethylases represent promising therapeutic targets.

The JMJD Family Histone Demethylases in Crosstalk Between Inflammation and Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Inflammation has emerged as a key player in regulating cancer initiation, progression, and therapeutics, acting as a double edged sword either facilitating cancer progression and therapeutic resistance or inducing anti-tumor immune responses ...

Gene Expression Profiles of Methyltransferases and Demethylases Associated with Metastasis, Tumor Invasion, CpG73 Methylation, and HPV Status in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
Epigenetic studies on the role of DNA-modifying enzymes in HNSCC tumorigenesis have focused on a single enzyme or a group of enzymes. To acquire a more comprehensive insight into the expression profile of methyltransferases and demethylases, in the ...

Association of N6-methyladenosine with viruses and virally induced diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2020
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, which alters gene expression, is the most prevalent internal modification of eukaryotic mRNA. m6A modification is dynamic and reversible that is regulated by three associated protein groups: methyltransferases or ...
