Histone demethylase JMJD1C is phosphorylated by mTOR to activate de novo lipogenesis

In response to insulin, liver cells increase de novo lipogenesis via the transcription factors USF-1 and SREBP. Here the authors show that USF-1 recruits JMJD1C, after its phosphorylation by mTOR, to lipogenic promoters where JMJD1C demethylates histone H3, contributing to lipogenesis by an epigenet...
