Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3) is a critical mediator of transcriptional gene repression, and Jmjd3 and Utx are the demethylases specific to H3K27me3. Using an in vitro retinal explant culture system, we previously revealed the role of Jmjd3 in the development of rod bipolar cells; however, the roles of Jmjd3 in the development of early-born retinal cells are unknown due to...
