This ambivalence could be explained by the expression of KDM5B protein isoforms with diverse functional roles, which could be present at different levels in various cancer cell lines. We show here that one of these isoforms, namely KDM5B-NTT, accumulates in breast cancer cell lines due to remarkable protein stability relative to the canonical PLU-1 isoform, which shows amuch faster turnover. This isoform is the truncated and catalytically inactive product of an mRNA with a transcription start site downstream of the PLU-1 isoform, and the consequent usage of an alternative ATG for translation initiation. It also differs from the PLU-1 transcript in the inclusion of an additional exon (exon-6), previously attributed to other putative isoforms. Overexpression of this isoform in MCF7 cells leads to an increase in bulk H3K4 methylation and induces derepression of a gene cluster, including the tumor suppressor Cav1 and several genes involved in the interferon-alpha and-gamma response.

Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) act as both readers and erasers of this modification. Specifically, there are two enzymatic classes of histone demethylases in human: the FAD-dependent amine oxidases, belonging to the lysine-specific histone demethylase (LSD) family, also known as the KDM1 subfamily, and the Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenases with a conserved JmjC catalytic domain, belonging to the Jumonji histone demethylases (JHDMs) family, also known as the KDM2-KDM7 subfamilies [2, 3] . KDMs show a high level of substrate specificity, with each acting on specific lysine residues with different degrees of methylation. Histone methylation may lead to different transcriptional outcomes, such as gene activation or repression, depending on the residue involved, the degree of methylation, and the location of the mark in the genome [4, 5] . Among the KDMs, KDM5 (or JARID1) enzymes act on H3K4me2/me3, playing an important role in transcriptional regulation, especially during development and differentiation. KDM5 enzymes can act as epigenetic repressors by removing the transcriptional activating mark H3K4me3 at gene promoter regions, but they can also act as transcriptional  \nactivators by removing H3K4me3 from the body of actively transcribed genes to safeguard transcriptional elongation by repressing spurious intragenic transcription [6] . Moreover, they can contribute to transcriptional activation by converting H3K4me3 to H3K4me1 at enhancer regions, as H3K4me1 modification combined with acetylated H3K27 is predictive of active enhancers. KDM5 proteins are also involved in DNA doublestrand break repair [7, 8] and chemoresistance [9–11] . The mammalian KDM5 subfamily consists of KDM5A (also known as JARID1A or RBP2), KDM5B (als","cbCaikKbmqaxsxQv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikKbmqaxsxQv","pdf",3189597,11,"English","# Introduction\n## Histone methylation and KDM classes\n## Roles of KDM5 enzymes in transcriptional regulation\n## KDM5B in cancer and tissue-specific expression","[{\"question\":\"What is KDM5B-NTT and why does it accumulate in breast cancer cells?\",\"answer\":\"KDM5B-NTT is a truncated, catalytically inactive KDM5B isoform.
