Abstract:Summary
The KDM5/JARID1 sub-family are 2-oxoglutarate and Fe(II)-dependent lysine-specific histone demethylases that are characterized by their Jumonji catalytic domains. The KDM5 family is known to remove tri-/di-methyl modifications from lysine-4 of histone H3 (i.e., H3-K4me2/3), a mark associated with active gene expression. As a result, studies to date have revolved around the influence of KDM5 on disease through their ability to regulate H3-K4me2/3. Recent evidence demonstrates that KDM5 ma… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
