Function and Regulation of Histone H3 Lysine-4 Methylation During Oocyte Meiosis and Maternal-to-Zygotic Transition

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
During oogenesis and fertilization, histone lysine methyltransferases (KMTs) and histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) tightly regulate the methylation of histone H3 on lysine-4 (H3K4me) by adding and removing methyl groups, respectively.

The histone demethylase Jhdm1a regulates hepatic gluconeogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Hepatic gluconeogenesis is required for maintaining blood glucose homeostasis; yet, in diabetes mellitus, this process is unrestrained and is a major contributor to fasting hyperglycemia.

Fluorinated tranylcypromine analogues as inhibitors of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1, KDM1A) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We report a series of tranylcypromine analogues containing a fluorine in the cyclopropyl ring. A number of compounds with additional m- or p- substitution of the aryl ring were micromolar inhibitors of the LSD1 enzyme.

ATF4‐mediated stress response as a therapeutic vulnerability in chordoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We screened 5 chordoma cell lines against 100+ inhibitors of epigenetic and metabolic pathways and kinases and identified halofuginone, a tRNA synthetase inhibitor. Mechanistically halofuginone induces an integrated stress response, with eIF2alpha phosphorylation, activation of ATF4 and its target genes CHOP, ASNS, INHBE leading to cell death ...

Histone lysine demethylases inDrosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yesFly, 2015
Epigenetic regulation of chromatin structure is a fundamental process for eukaryotes. Regulators include DNA methylation, microRNAs and chromatin modifications. Within the chromatin modifiers, one class of enzymes that can functionally bind and modify chromatin, through the removal of methyl marks, is the histone lysine demethylases. Here, we summarize

Heat Stress Modulates WDR5‐Mediated H3K4me3 Modification to Induce Melanogenesis via Activating CX3CL1/CX3CR1 Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the mechanism by which heat stress regulates skin pigmentation: heat stress upregulates CX3CL1 through the MYC‐WDR5‐H3K4me3 axis, thereby activating the CX3CL1/CX3CR1‐JNK signaling pathway and ultimately promoting melanogenesis. These findings provide novel potential therapeutic targets for pigmentary skin disorders.

Posttranslational modifications of the histone 3 tail and their impact on the activity of histone lysine demethylases in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of the histone H3 tail such as methylation, acetylation and phosphorylation play important roles in epigenetic signaling.

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.

Single‐Nucleus Multi‐Omics Reveals Hypoxia‐Driven Angiogenic Programs and Their Epigenetic Control in Sinonasal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐nucleus multi‐omics profiling of sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma unveils a hypoxia‐driven angiogenic axis. A specific hypoxic tumor subpopulation orchestrates endothelial tip cell differentiation via epigenetically regulated ADM and VEGFA secretion.

Histone lysine demethylases and their functions in cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, 2020
Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) are enzymes that remove the methylation marks on lysines in nucleosomes' histone tails. These changes in methylation marks regulate gene transcription during both development and malignant transformation.
