1.14.11.67 | evolution | RBR-2 is the sole homolog of the KDM5 family of H3K4me3/2 demethylases in Caenorhabditis elegans | Caenorhabditis elegans |
1.14.11.67 | malfunction | the dynamic regulation of histone modifications is important for modulating transcriptional programs during development. Aberrant H3K4 methylation is associated with neurological disorders. Loss of rbr-2 results in increased levels of H3K4me3 at the transcriptional start site of wsp-1, with concomitant higher wsp-1 expression responsible for defective axon guidance, overexpression of WSP-1 mimics rbr-2 loss, and its depletion restores normal axon guidance in rbr-2 mutants, phenotypes in rbr-2(tm3141) mutants, overview. Re-expression of WSP-1 in rbr-2/wsp-1 double mutants results in a significant increase of PVQ defects | Caenorhabditis elegans |
1.14.11.67 | metabolism | NURF-1, an H3K4me3-binding protein and member of the chromatin-remodeling complex NURF, is required for promoting aberrant wsp-1 transcription in rbr-2 mutants and its ablation restores wild-type expression of wsp-1 and axon guidance | Caenorhabditis elegans |
1.14.11.67 | physiological function | the H3K4me3/2 histone demethylase RBR-2 is required during embryogenesis in the nervous system to ensure correct axon guidance. RBR-2 controls axon guidance by repressing the actin-remodeling gene wsp-1. RBR-2 is essential for establishing correct axon guidance of the PVQ neurons during embryonic development, but it does not play any role in its maintenance. Role of rbr-2 in neuronal development, role of H3K4me3 readers in axon patterning, and epigenetic regulation of transcription. RBR-2 is required specifically in the nervous system (F25B3.3 promoter), but its presence in hypodermal cells (dpy-7 promoter) and in muscles(myo-3 promoter) is not essential | Caenorhabditis elegans |
