General description

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) acts on mono- and dimethylated histones and demethylates them. It has a role in embryogenesis, cell proliferation, spermatogenesis, adipogenesis and chromosomal segregation. Histone H3 peptide methylated at Lysine 4 is a substrate for LSD1. Histone cluster 1 H3 family member E (HIST1H3E) is a variant of histone 3 and is also called as the replicative histone. It is mainly expressed in the S-phase of the cell cycle. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 6p22.

Application

Study enzyme kinetics and screen small molecular inhibitors of LSD1 for drug discovery and HTS applications

Biochem/physiol Actions

Histones have an important role in the organization and modification of chromatin. Histone cluster 1 H3 family member E (HIST1H3E) has a role in DNA synthesis during DNA replication and might also be involved in DNA repair. It is deposited at the chromatin at the time of DNA replication-associated chromatin assembly. During herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection, differential movement of HIST1H3E is associated with the assembly of viral chromatin.

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), the first identified histone demethylase, was belonged to the superfamily of the flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent amine oxidases. LSD1 specifically demethylates mono- or dimethylated dimethylated histone H3 lysine4 (H3K4) and H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) via a

During lytic infections, HSV-1 genomes are assembled into unstable nucleosomes. The histones required for HSV-1 chromatin assembly, however, are in the cellular chromatin. We have shown that linker (H1) and core (H2B and H4) histones are mobilized during HSV-1 infection

Two very similar H3 histones-differing at only four amino acid positions-are produced in Drosophila cells. Here we describe a mechanism of chromatin regulation whereby the variant H3.3 is deposited at particular loci, including active rDNA arrays. While the major H3

The mechanism by which newly synthesized histones are imported into the nucleus and deposited onto replicating chromatin alongside segregating nucleosomal counterparts is poorly understood, yet this program is expected to bear on the putative epigenetic nature of histone post-translational modifications.

Histone Modification and Chromatin Remodeling | Epigenetics

Epigenetic modifications are thought to occur through two key interconnected processes—DNA methylation and the covalent modification of histones.
