Abstract

© 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry. Jumonji domain-containing demethylases (JmjC-KDMs) catalyse demethylation of Nϵ-methylated lysines on histones and play important roles in gene regulation. We report selectivity studies on KDM6B (JMJD3), a disease-relevant JmjC-KDM, using synthetic lysine analogues. The results unexpectedly reveal that KDM6B accepts multiple Nϵ-alkylated lysine analogues, forming alcohol, aldehyde and carboxylic acid products.
