Specific phosphorylation of histone demethylase KDM3A determines target gene expression in response to heat shock.

Histone lysine (K) residues, which are modified by methyl- and acetyl-transferases, diversely regulate RNA synthesis. Unlike the ubiquitously activating effect of histone K acetylation, the effects of histone K methylation vary with the number of methyl groups added and with the position of these gr...
