Involvement of a Jumonji‐C domain‐containing histone demethylase in DRM2‐mediated maintenance of DNA methylation [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2010
Histone demethylases—both lysine‐specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) and Jumonji‐C (JmjC) domain‐containing proteins—are broadly implicated in the regulation of chromatin‐dependent processes. In Arabidopsis thaliana, histone marks directly affect DNA methylation, and mutations in LSD1 homologues show reduced DNA methylation at some loci. We screened transfer

A Selective Inhibitor and Probe of the Cellular Functions of Jumonji C Domain-Containing Histone Demethylases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2011
Histone methylations are important chromatin marks that regulate gene expression, genomic stability, DNA repair, and genomic imprinting. Histone demethylases are the most recent family of histone-modifying enzymes discovered. Here, we report the characterization of a small-molecule inhibitor of Jumonji C domain-containing histone demethylases.

Histone demethylase Jumonji domain‐containing 1A inhibits proliferation and progression of gastric cancer by upregulating runt‐related transcription factor 3 [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Science, 2020
AbstractThe histone demethylase Jumonji domain‐containing 1A (JMJD1A) is overexpressed in multiple cancers and promotes cancer progression. However, the role and mechanism of JMJD1A in gastric cancer (GC) remains poorly understood. Here, we found that JMJD1A could suppress GC cell proliferation and xenograft tumor growth.

PHF2 regulates homology-directed DNA repair by controlling the resection of DNA double strand breaks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Post-translational histone modifications and chromatin remodelling play a critical role controlling the integrity of the genome. Here, we identify histone lysine demethylase PHF2 as a novel regulator of the DNA damage response by regulating DNA damage ...

Vitamin C and epigenetics: A short physiological overview

open access: yesOpen Medicine, 2023
In recent years, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) has acquired great interest due to its multiple functions, which results in homeostasis of normal tissues and organs. On the other hand, it has been shown that epigenetic modifications may have an important role

Epigenetic Regulation of Wnt Signaling by Carboxamide-Substituted Benzhydryl Amines that Function as Histone Demethylase Inhibitors

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Aberrant activation of Wnt signaling triggered by mutations in either Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) or CTNNB1 (β-catenin) is a hallmark of colorectal cancers (CRC).

Structural analysis of the 2-oxoglutarate binding site of the circadian rhythm linked oxygenase JMJD5

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
JmjC (Jumonji-C) domain-containing 5 (JMJD5) plays important roles in circadian regulation in plants and humans and is involved in embryonic development and cell proliferation.

Chromatin and oxygen sensing in the context of JmjC histone demethylases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Responding appropriately to changes in oxygen availability is essential for multicellular organism survival. Molecularly, cells have evolved intricate gene expression programmes to handle this stressful condition.

Epigenetics in ovarian cancer: premise, properties, and perspectives. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Malignant ovarian tumors bear the highest mortality rate among all gynecological cancers. Both late tumor diagnosis and tolerance to available chemical therapy increase patient mortality.

Cooperation between ETS variant 2 and Jumonji domain‑containing 2 histone demethylases

open access: yesMolecular Medicine Reports, 2018
The E26 transformation-specific (ETS) variant 2 (ETV2) protein, also designated as ETS-related 71, is a member of the ETS transcription factor family and is essential for blood and vascular development in the embryo. The role of ETV2 in cancer has not yet been investigated.
