Epigenetic modifications, including posttranslational modifications of histones, are closely linked to transcriptional regulation. Trimethylated H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) is one of the most studied histone modifications owing to its enrichment at the start sites of transcription and its association with gene expression and processes determining cell fate, development, and disease. In this review, we focus on recent studies that have yielded insights into how levels and patterns of H3K4me3 are regulated, how H3K4me3 contributes to the regulation of specific phases of transcription such as RNA polymerase II initiation, pause-release, heterogeneity, and consistency. The conclusion from these studies is that H3K4me3 by itself regulates gene expression and its precise regulation is essential for normal development and preventing disease.
期刊介绍：
Trends in Cell Biology stands as a prominent review journal in molecular and cell biology. Monthly review articles track the current breadth and depth of research in cell biology, reporting on emerging developments and integrating various methods, disciplines, and principles. Beyond Reviews, the journal features Opinion articles that follow trends, offer innovative ideas, and provide insights into the implications of new developments, suggesting future directions. All articles are commissioned from leading scientists and undergo rigorous peer-review to ensure balance and accuracy.
