Hypoxia-Induced Epigenetic Regulation and Silencing of the BRCA1 Promoter
TL;DR: It is shown that hypoxia also drives epigenetic modification of the BRCA1 promoter, with decreased H3K4 methylation as a key repressive modification produced by the lysine-specific histone demethylase LSD1.

Role of the PLDLS-binding cleft region of CtBP1 in recruitment of core and auxiliary components of the corepressor complex.
Mohan Kuppuswamy,S. Vijayalingam,Ling-Jun Zhao,Yun Zhou,Thirugnana Subramanian,Jan S. Ryerse,G. Chinnadurai +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the PLDLS-binding cleft region functions as the primary recruitment center for DNA-binding factors and for the core and auxiliary enzymatic constituents of the CtBP1 corepressor complex, and it is provided evidence thatCtBP1 functions as a platform for sumoylation of cofactors.

The cancer driver genes IDH1/2, JARID1C/ KDM5C, and UTX/ KDM6A: crosstalk between histone demethylation and hypoxic reprogramming in cancer metabolism.
TL;DR: The most recent findings regarding cancer-specific metabolic reprogramming and the tumor-suppressive roles of JARID1C/K DM5C and UTX/KDM6A are reviewed, which suggest that histone demethylases mediate metabolic changes in chromatin structure.

Role of epigenetics in inflammation-associated diseases.
Muthu K. Shanmugam,Gautam Sethi +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on pro-inflammatory molecules that are regulated by enzymes involved in epigenetic modifications such as arginine and lysine methyl transferases, DNA methyltransferase, histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases and their role in inflammation driven diseases.

Diverse epigenetic mechanisms of human disease.
Emily Brookes,Yang Shi +1 more
TL;DR: Emerging evidence suggests that exposure to environmental stresses in older generations may predispose subsequent generations to disease in a manner that involves the transgenerational inheritance of epigenetic information.

Translating the Histone Code
Thomas Jenuwein,C. David Allis +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that this epigenetic marking system represents a fundamental regulatory mechanism that has an impact on most, if not all, chromatin-templated processes, with far-reaching consequences for cell fate decisions and both normal and pathological development.

Role of Histone H3 Lysine 27 Methylation in Polycomb-Group Silencing
Ru Cao,Liangjun Wang,Hengbin Wang,Li Xia,Hediye Erdjument-Bromage,Paul Tempst,Richard S. Jones,Yi Zhang +7 more
TL;DR: The purification and characterization of an EED-EZH2 complex, the human counterpart of the Drosophila ESC-E(Z) complex, is reported, and it is demonstrated that the complex specifically methylates nucleosomal histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3-K27).

Methylation of histone H3 lysine 9 creates a binding site for HP1 proteins.
TL;DR: It is shown that mammalian methyltransferases that selectively methylate histone H3 on lysine 9 (Suv39h HMTases) generate a binding site for HP1 proteins—a family of heterochromatic adaptor molecules implicated in both gene silencing and supra-nucleosomal chromatin structure.

Selective recognition of methylated lysine 9 on histone H3 by the HP1 chromo domain.

TL;DR: A stepwise model for the formation of a transcriptionally silent heterochromatin is provided: SUV39H1 places a ‘methyl marker’ on histone H3, which is then recognized by HP1 through its chromo domain, which may also explain the stable inheritance of theheterochromatic state.

TL;DR: A functional interdependence of site-specific H3 tail modifications is revealed and a dynamic mechanism for the regulation of higher-order chromatin is suggested.
