JMJD3 is a histone H3K27 demethylase [PDF]

open access: yesCell Research, 2007
Histone methylation is an important epigenetic phenomenon that participates in a diverse array of cellular processes and has been found to be associated with cancer. Recent identification of several histone demethylases has proved that histone methylation is a reversible process.

Targeting epigenetic regulators to overcome drug resistance in cancers

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
Drug resistance is mainly responsible for cancer recurrence and poor prognosis. Epigenetic regulation is a heritable change in gene expressions independent of nucleotide sequence changes.

The Discovery of Histone Demethylases [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
Histone methylation is a key element of the eukaryotic epigenome. Since the discovery of the first histone demethylase (HDM) in 2004, more than 20 demethylases have been identified and characterized. They belong to either the LSD family or the JmjC family, demonstrating the reversibility of all methylation states at almost all major histone lysine ...

Histone H4K20 Demethylation by Two hHR23 Proteins

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Histone methyl groups can be removed by demethylases. Although LSD1 and JmjC domain-containing proteins have been identified as histone demethylases, enzymes for many histone methylation states or sites are still unknown.

Involvement of JMJ15 in the dynamic change of genome-wide H3K4me3 in response to salt stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Post-translational histone modifications play important roles in regulating chromatin structure and transcriptional regulation. Histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) is a prominent histone modification mainly associated with gene activation.
