Data indicate that histone demethylases KDM4A/C regulate H3K9 and H3K36 methylation on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) versus astroglial glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) genes in neural stem cells.
Title: Gene-specific methylation control of H3K9 and H3K36 on neurotrophic BDNF versus astroglial GFAP genes by KDM4A/C regulates neural stem cell differentiation.
This study demonistrated that exposure to repeated episodes of social defeat increased numbers of cells immunoreactive for histone H3 acetylation.
Title: Repeated social defeat selectively increases δFosB expression and histone H3 acetylation in the infralimbic medial prefrontal cortex.
CBP/p300 and P/CAF are key players in neuronal outgrowth, acetylate histone H3 at K9-14 and the transcription factor p53, thereby initiating a pro-neuronal outgrowth transcriptional program.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
