abstract：:JMJD2A-D belong to the JmjC domain-containing family of histone demethylases. JMJD2D is the most structurally divergent JMJD2 protein as it lacks the PHD and Tudor domains present in JMJD2A-C. Here, we systematically analyzed the histone demethylase specificity of JMJD2 proteins in vivo. We found that JMJD2A and C dem...
