Histone H3K27me3 demethylases regulate human Th17 cell development and effector functions by impacting on metabolism

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance T cells control many immune functions, with Th17 cells critical in regulating inflammation. Following activation, T cells undergo metabolic reprogramming and utilize glycolysis to increase the ATP availability.

JMJD family proteins in cancer and inflammation

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2022
The occurrence of cancer entails a series of genetic mutations that favor uncontrollable tumor growth. It is believed that various factors collectively contribute to cancer, and there is no one single explanation for tumorigenesis.

Epigenetic regulation of Epichloë festucae secondary metabolite biosynthesis and symbiotic interaction with Lolium perenne : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Genetics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Histone methylation is one of several epigenetic layers for transcriptional regulation. Most studies on the importance of this histone modification in regulating fungal secondary metabolite gene expression and pathogenicity have focussed on the role of

A role for SUMO modification in transcriptional repression and activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Since the discovery of the SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) family of proteins just over a decade ago, a plethora of substrates have been uncovered including many regulators of transcription.

Histone Demethylases as Counterbalance to H3K27me3 Silencing in Plants

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary The universal importance of epigenetic regulation has become explicit over the last decade. There is now a detailed understanding of the molecular signatures and chromatin-modifying enzymes determining epigenetic regulation.

Structural insight into inhibitors of flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent lysine demethylases

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2017
Until 2004, many researchers believed that protein methylation in eukaryotic cells was an irreversible reaction. However, the discovery of lysine-specific demethylase 1 in 2004 drastically changed this view and the concept of chromatin regulation.

Histone demethylases regulate adipocyte thermogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetology International, 2018
Adipocytes play a pivotal role in the regulation of energy metabolism. While white adipocyte stores energy, brown adipocyte dissipates energy by producing heat. In addition, another type of heat-producing adipocyte, beige adipocyte, emerges in white adipose tissue in response to chronic coldness.

KDM2 is a H3K4me3 demethylase regulating nucleolar organization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background CG11033 (dKDM2) is the Drosophila homolog of the gene KDM2B. dKDM2 has been known to possess histone lysine demethylase activity towards H3K36me2 in cell lines and it regulates H2A ubiquitination.

Genome-Wide Identification of DNA Methylases and Demethylases in Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
DNA methylation plays an important role in a wide range of developmental and physiological processes in plants. It is primarily catalyzed and regulated by cytosine-5 DNA methyltransferases (C5-MTases) and a group of DNA glycosylases that act as ...

The Emerging Significance of Histone Lysine Demethylases as Prognostic Markers and Therapeutic Targets in Head and Neck Cancers

open access: yesCells, 2022
Epigenetic aberrations, associated with altered DNA methylation profiles and global changes in the level of histone modifications, are commonly detected in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC).
