Modulation of H3K4 trimethylation by KDM5A and MLLs impacts metabolic adaptability in prostate and cervical cancer cells

R. Kirtana, Soumen Manna, Samir Kumar Patra

This study shows that KDM5A and MLLs modulate metabolic adaptability in prostate and cervical cancer cells by regulating H3K4me3 levels on metabolic gene promoters.

Physical association of functionally antagonistic enzymes: KDM5A interacts with MLLs to regulate gene expression in a promoter specific manner facilitating EMT and pluripotency.

R. Kirtana, Soumen Manna, Samir Kumar Patra

The paper shows KDM5A interacts with MLLs to regulate gene expression in a promoter-specific manner, promoting EMT and pluripotency through distinct epigenetic mechanisms.
