Alternate Names
  • Lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A
  • BRAF35-HDAC complex protein BHC110
  • Flavin-containing amine oxidase domain-containing protein 2
Background InformationLSD1 (lysine specific demethylase 1), also known as BHC110, is a histone demethylase that specifically demethylates Lys4 of histone H3, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation, thereby acting as a corepressor. LSD1 acts by oxidizing the substrate by FAD to generate the corresponding imine that is subsequently hydrolyzed. LSD1 demethylates both mono- and tri-methylted Lys4 of histone H3, and may play a role in the repression of neuronal genes. Alone, it is unable to demethylate H3 Lys4 on nucleosomes and requires the presence of RCOR1/CoREST to achieve such activity. LSD1 may also demethylate Lys9 of histone H3, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression, thereby leading to derepression of androgen receptor target genes.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a nuclear protein containing a SWIRM domain, a FAD-binding motif, and an amine oxidase domain. This protein is a component of several histone deacetylase complexes, though it silences genes by functioning as a histone demethylase. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Histone demethylase that demethylates both 'Lys-4' (H3K4me) and 'Lys-9' (H3K9me) of histone H3, thereby acting as a coactivator or a corepressor, depending on the context. Acts by oxidizing the substrate by FAD to generate the corresponding imine that is subsequently hydrolyzed. Acts as a corepressor by mediating demethylation of H3K4me, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Demethylates both mono- (H3K4me1) and di-methylated (H3K4me2) H3K4me. May play a role in the repression of neuronal genes. Alone, it is unable to demethylate H3K4me on nucleosomes and requires the presence of RCOR1/CoREST to achieve such activity. Also acts as a coactivator of androgen receptor (ANDR)-dependent transcription, by being recruited to ANDR target genes and mediating demethylation of H3K9me, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression. The presence of PRKCB in ANDR-containing complexes, which mediates phosphorylation of 'Thr-6' of histone H3 (H3T6ph), a specific tag that prevents demethylation H3K4me, prevents H3K4me demethylase activity of KDM1A. Demethylates di-methylated 'Lys-370' of p53/TP53 which prevents interaction of p53/TP53 with TP53BP1 and represses p53/TP53-mediated transcriptional activation. Demethylates and stabilizes the DNA methylase DNMT1. Required for gastrulation during embryogenesis.

COFACTOR: FAD.

SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Component of a BHC histone deacetylase complex that contains HDAC1, HDAC2, HMG20B/BRAF35, KDM1A, RCOR1/CoREST and PHF21A/BHC80. The BHC complex may also contain ZMYM2, ZNF217, ZMYM3, GSE1 and GTF2I. In the complex, RCOR1/CoREST strongly enhances the demethylase activity and protects it from the proteasome while PHF21A/BHC80 inhibits the demethylase activity. Interacts with the androgen receptor (AR).

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed.
Molecular Weight~110 kDa observed. Uniprot describes two isoforms at ~92 kDa and ~95 kDa due to alternative splicing.
