PHD finger found in yeast orthologs of ING tumor suppressor family; The yeast orthologs of the plant homeodomain (PHD) finger-containing ING tumor suppressor family consists of chromatin modification-related protein YNG1 (Yng1p), YNG2 (Yng2p), and transcriptional regulatory protein PHO23 (Pho23p). Yng1p, also termed ING1 homolog 1, is one of the components of the NuA3 histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex. Its PHD finger binding to H3 Trimethylated at K4 (H3K4me3) promotes NuA3 H3 HAT activity at K14 of H3 on chromatin. Yng2p, also termed ESA1-associated factor 4, or ING1 homolog 2, is a subunit of the NuA4 HAT complex. It plays a critical role in intra-S-phase DNA damage response. Pho23p is part of the Rpd3/Sin3 histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex. It is required for the normal function of Rpd3 in the silencing of rDNA, telomeric, and mating-type loci. Yng1p and Pho23p inhibit p53-dependent transcription. In contrast, Yng2p has the opposite effect. All family members contain an N-terminal ING histone-binding domain and a C-terminal PHD finger.

PHD finger found in inhibitor of growth protein 1 (ING1) and 2 (ING2); ING1 is an epigenetic regulator and a type II tumor suppressor that impacts cell growth, aging, apoptosis, and DNA repair, by affecting chromatin conformation and gene expression. It acts as a reader of the active chromatin mark, the trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3). It binds and directs Growth arrest and DNA damage inducible protein 45 a (Gadd45a) to target sites, thus linking the histone code with DNA demethylation. It interacts with the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) via the PCNA-interacting protein (PIP) domain in a UV-inducible manner. It also interacts with a PCNA-interacting protein, p15 (PAF). Moreover, ING1 associates with members of the 14-3-3 family, which is necessary for cytoplasmic relocalization. Endogenous ING1 protein specifically interacts with the pro-apoptotic BCL2 family member BAX and colocalizes with BAX in a UV-inducible manner. It stabilizes the p53 tumor suppressor by inhibiting polyubiquitination of multi-monoubiquitinated forms via interaction with and colocalization of the herpesvirus-associated ubiquitin-specific protease (HAUSP)-deubiquitinase with p53. It is also involved in trichostatin A-induced apoptosis and caspase 3 signaling in p53-deficient glioblastoma cells. In addition, tyrosine kinase Src can bind and phosphorylate ING1 and further regulates its activity. ING2, also termed inhibitor of growth 1-like protein (ING1Lp), or p32, or p33ING2, belongs to the inhibitor of growth (ING) family of type II tumor suppressors. It is a core component of a multi-factor chromatin-modifying complex containing the transcriptional co-repressor SIN3A and histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1). It has been implicated in the control of cell cycle, in genome stability, and in muscle differentiation. ING2 independently interacts with H3K4me3 (Histone H3 trimethylated on lysine 4) and PtdIns(5)P, and modulates crosstalk between lysine methylation and lysine acetylation on histone proteins through association with chromatin in the presence of DNA damage. It collaborates with SnoN to mediate transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta-induced Smad-dependent transcription and cellular responses. It is upregulated in colon cancer and increases invasion by enhanced MMP13 expression. It also acts as a cofactor of p300 for p53 acetylation and plays a positive regulatory role during p53-mediated replicative senescence. Both ING1 and ING2 contain an N-terminal ING domain and a C-terminal plant homeodomain (PHD) finger.

PHD finger found in inhibitor of growth protein 4 (ING4); ING4, also termed p29ING4, is one member of the inhibitor of growth (ING) family of type II tumor suppressors. It acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase to induce ubiquitination of the p65 subunit of NF-kappaB and inhibit the transactivation of NF-kappaB target genes. It also induces apoptosis through a p53 dependent pathway, including increasing p53 acetylation, inhibiting Mdm2-mediated degradation of p53 and enhancing the expression of p53 responsive genes both at the transcriptional and post-translational levels. Moreover, ING4 can inhibit the translation of proto-oncogene MYC by interacting with AUF1. It also regulates other transcription factors, such as hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). In addition, ING4 associates with histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complexes containing MOZ (monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein)/MORF (MOZ-related factor) and HBO1, and further directs the MOZ/MORF and HBO1 complexes to chromatin. ING4 contains an N-terminal ING histone-binding domain and a C-terminal plant homeodomain (PHD) finger.

PHD finger 5 found in nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing (NSD) proteins; The nuclear receptor binding SET domain (NSD) protein is a family of three HMTases, NSD1, NSD2/MMSET/WHSC1, and NSD3/WHSC1L1, that are critical in maintaining chromatin integrity. Reducing NSD activity through specific lysine-HMTase inhibitors appears promising to help suppress cancer growth. NSD proteins have specific mono- and dimethylase activities for H3K36, and they play non-redundant roles during development. NSD1 plays a role in several pathologies, including but not limited to Sotos and Weaver syndromes, acute myeloid leukemia, breast cancer, neuroblastoma, and glioblastoma formation. NSD2 is involved in cancer cell proliferation, survival, and tumor growth, by mediating constitutive NF-kappaB signaling via the cytokine autocrine loop. NSD3 is amplified in human breast cancer cell lines. Moreover, translocation resulting in NUP98 fusion to NSD3 leads to the development of acute myeloid leukemia. NSD proteins contain a catalytic suppressor of variegation, enhancer of zeste and trithorax (SET) domain, two proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline (PWWP) domains, five plant homeodomain (PHD) fingers, and an NSD-specific Cys-His rich domain (Cys5HisCysHis). This model corresponds to the fifth PHD finger.

PHD finger superfamily; The PHD finger superfamily includes a canonical plant homeodomain (PHD) finger typically characterized as Cys4HisCys3, and a non-canonical extended PHD finger, characterized as Cys2HisCys5HisCys2His. Variations include the RAG2 PHD finger characterized by Cys3His2Cys2His and the PHD finger 5 found in nuclear receptor-binding SET domain-containing proteins characterized by Cys4HisCys2His. The PHD finger is also termed LAP (leukemia-associated protein) motif or TTC (trithorax consensus) domain. Single or multiple copies of PHD fingers have been found in a variety of eukaryotic proteins involved in the control of gene transcription and chromatin dynamics. PHD fingers can recognize the unmodified and modified histone H3 tail, and some have been found to interact with non-histone proteins. They also function as epigenome readers controlling gene expression through molecular recruitment of multi-protein complexes of chromatin regulators and transcription factors. The PHD finger domain SF is structurally similar to the RING and FYVE_like superfamilies.

PHD finger found in CXXC-type zinc finger protein 1 (Cfp1); Cfp1, also termed CpG-binding protein, or PHD finger and CXXC domain-containing protein 1 (PCCX1), is a specificity factor that binds to unmethylated CpGs and links H3K4me3 with CpG islands (CGIs). It integrates both promoter CpG content and gene activity for accurate trimethylation of histone H3 Lys 4 (H3K4me3) deposition in embryonic stem cells. Moreover, Cfp1 is an essential component of the SETD1 histone H3K4 methyltransferase complex and functions as a critical regulator of histone methylation, cytosine methylation, cellular differentiation, and vertebrate development. Cfp1 contains a plant homeodomain (PHD) finger, a CXXC domain, and a CpG binding protein zinc finger C-terminal domain. Its CXXC domain selectively binds to non-methylated CpG islands, following by a preference for a guanosine nucleotide.

PHD finger found in Transcription factor 19 (TCF-19), Lysine-specific demethylase KDM5A and KDM5B, and other similar proteins; TCF-19 was identified as a putative trans-activating factor with expression beginning at the late G1-S boundary in dividing cells. It functions as a novel islet factor necessary for proliferation and survival in the INS-1 beta cell line. It plays an important role in susceptibility to both Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM); it has been suggested that it may positively impact beta cell mass under conditions of beta cell stress and increased insulin demand. KDM5A was originally identified as a retinoblastoma protein (Rb)-binding partner and its inactivation may be important for Rb to promote differentiation. It is involved in transcription through interaction with TBP, p107, nuclear receptors, Myc, Sin3/HDAC, Mad1, RBP-J, CLOCK, and BMAL1. KDM5B has a restricted expression pattern in the testis, ovary, and transiently in the mammary gland of the pregnant female and has been shown to be upregulated in breast cancer, prostate cancer, and lung cancer, suggesting a potential role in tumorigenesis. Both KDM5A and KDM5B function as trimethylated histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) demethylases. This family also includes Caenorhabditis elegans Lysine-specific demethylase 7 homolog (ceKDM7A). ceKDM7A (also termed JmjC domain-containing protein 1.2, PHD finger protein 8 homolog, or PHF8 homolog) is a plant homeodomain (PHD)- and JmjC domain-containing protein that functions as a histone demethylase specific for H3K9me2 and H3K27me2. The binding of the PHD finger to H3K4me3 guides H3K9me2- and H3K27me2-specific demethylation by its catalytic JmjC domain in a trans-histone regulation mechanism. In addition, this family includes plant protein OBERON 1 and OBERON 2, Alfin1-like (AL) proteins, histone acetyltransferases (HATs) HAC, and AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 4 (ARID4).
