摘要: Histone lysine methylation plays a fundamental role in chromatin organization and function. This epigenetic mark is involved many biological processes such as heterochromatin formation, chromosome X inactivation, genomic imprinting transcriptional regulation. Here, we review recent advances how histone participates these events, the enzymes that control demethylation.
