Critical role of histone demethylase Jumonji domain-containing protein 3 in the regulation of neointima formation following vascular injury [PDF]
Jumonji domain-containing protein 3 (JMJD3), also called lysine specific demethylase 6B (KDM6b), is an inducible histone demethylase which plays an important role in many biological processes, however, its function in vascular remodelling remains unknown. We aim to demonstrate that JMJD3 mediates vascular neointimal hyperplasia following carotid injury,

Systematic discovery of genetic modulation by Jumonji histone demethylases in Drosophila [PDF]
Jumonji (JmjC) domain proteins influence gene expression and chromatin organization by way of histone demethylation, which provides a means to regulate the activity of genes across the genome.
