Drosophila Kdm4 demethylases in histone H3 lysine 9 demethylation and ecdysteroid signaling
The dynamic regulation of chromatin structure by histone post-translational modification is an essential regulatory mechanism that controls global gene transcription. The Kdm4 family of H3K9me2,3 and H3K36me2,3 dual specific histone demethylases has been implicated in development and tumorigenesis. Here we show that Drosophila Kdm4A and Kdm4B are together essential for mediating ecdysteroid hor...
متن کاملKDM4/JMJD2 histone demethylases: epigenetic regulators in cancer cells.
Lysine methylation is one of the most prominent histone posttranslational modifications that regulate chromatin structure. Changes in histone lysine methylation status have been observed during cancer formation, which is thought to be a consequence of the dysregulation of histone lysine methyltransferases or the opposing demethylases. KDM4/JMJD2 proteins are demethylases that target histone H3 ...
متن کاملReader domain specificity and lysine demethylase-4 family function
The KDM4 histone demethylases are conserved epigenetic regulators linked to development, spermatogenesis and tumorigenesis. However, how the KDM4 family targets specific chromatin regions is largely unknown. Here, an extensive histone peptide microarray analysis uncovers trimethyl-lysine histone-binding preferences among the closely related KDM4 double tudor domains (DTDs). KDM4A/B DTDs bind st...
متن کاملStudies on the catalytic domains of multiple JmjC oxygenases using peptide substrates
The JmjC-domain-containing 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenases catalyze protein hydroxylation and N(ϵ)-methyllysine demethylation via hydroxylation. A subgroup of this family, the JmjC lysine demethylases (JmjC KDMs) are involved in histone modifications at multiple sites. There are conflicting reports as to the substrate selectivity of some JmjC oxygenases with respect to KDM activities. In th...
متن کاملCadmium induces histone H3 lysine methylation by inhibiting histone demethylase activity.
Cadmium is an established human lung carcinogen with weak mutagenicity. However, the mechanisms underlying cadmium-induced carcinogenesis remain obscure. It has been suggested that epigenetic mechanisms may play a role in cadmium-induced carcinogenesis. In this study, we investigated the effects of cadmium on histone methylation and histone demethylases, and the role of histone methylation in t...
