Histone demethylases in chromatin cross‐talks [PDF]
The ‘histone code’ hypothesis states that chromatin‐based regulation of nuclear processes such as transcription is brought about by the combination of distinct modifications (histone marks) at specific loci. Its correct establishment involves chromatin cross‐talks, ensuring an ordered and concerted deposition/removal of a particular set of ...

Essential functions of the histone demethylase lid. [PDF]
Drosophila Little imaginal discs (Lid) is a recently described member of the JmjC domain class of histone demethylases that specifically targets trimethylated histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3). To understand its biological function, we have utilized a series

Histone demethylase lysine demethylase 5B in development and cancer
Histone methylation is one of the most important chromatin posttranslational modifications. It has a range of influences on nuclear functions including epigenetic inheritance, transcriptional regulation and the maintenance of genome integrity. Changes in histone methylation status take part in various physiological and pathological processes.
