The methylation state of lysine residues in histone proteins is major determinant for formation of active and inactive regions of the genome and is crucial for proper programming of the genome during development (1,2).
Jumonji C (JmjC) domain-containing proteins represent the largest class of potential histone demethylase proteins (3).
The JmjC domain of several proteins has been shown to catalyze the demethylation of mono-, di-, and tri-methyl lysine residues via an oxidative reaction that requires iron and alpha-ketoglutarate (3).
Based on homology, both humans and mice contain at least 30 such proteins, which can be divided into seven separate families (3).
The JMJD1 (Jumonji domain-containing protein 1) family, also known as JHDM2 (JmjC domain-containing histone demethylation protein 2) family, contains four members: hairless (HR), JMJD1A/JH- DM2A, JMJD1B/JHDM2B, JMJD1C/JHDM2C.
Hairless is expressed in the skin and brain and acts as a co-repressor of the thyroid hormone receptor (4-6).
Mutations in the hairless gene cause alopecia in both mice and humans (4,5).
JMJD1A is expressed in meiotic and post-meiotic male germ cells, contributes to androgen receptor-mediated gene regulation, and is required for spermatogenesis (7-9).
It has also been identified as a downstream target of OCT4 and STAT3 and is critical for the regulation of self-renewal in embryonic stem cells (10,11).
JMJD1B is a more widely expressed family member and is frequently deleted in myeloid leukemia (12).
JMJD1C (also known as TRIP8) is a co-factor of both the androgen receptor and thyroid receptor and has a potential link to autism (13-15).
Members of the JMJD1/JHDM2 family have been shown to demethylate mono-methyl and di-methyl histone H3 (Lys9) (3,8).
