Histone lysine demethylase PHF8

Histone lysine demethylase with selectivity for thedi-and monomethyl states that plays a key role cell cycleprogression, rDNA transcription and brain development. Demethylatesmono- and dimethylated histone H3 'Lys-9' residue (H3K9Me1 andH3K9Me2), dimethylated H3 'Lys-27' (H3K27Me2) and monomethylatedhistone H4 'Lys-20' residue (H4K20Me1). Acts as a transcriptionactivator as H3K9Me1, H3K9Me2, H3K27Me2 and H4K20Me1 are epigeneticrepressive marks. Involved in cell cycle progression by beingrequired to control G1-S transition. Acts as a coactivator of rDNAtranscription, by activating polymerase I (pol I) mediatedtranscription of rRNA genes. Required for brain development,probably by regulating expression of neuron-specific genes. Onlyhas activity toward H4K20Me1 when nucleosome is used as a substrateand when not histone octamer is used as substrate. May also haveweak activity toward dimethylated H3 'Lys-36' (H3K36Me2), however,the relevance of this result remains unsure in vivo. Specificallybinds trimethylated 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4me3), affectinghistone demethylase specificity: has weak activity toward H3K9Me2in absence of H3K4me3, while it has high activity toward H3K9me2when binding H3K4me3.
