Arginine demethylation is catalysed by a subset of JmjC histone lysine demethylases
While reversal of lysine methylation on histone tails is a well-established mechanism to tune gene expression, the existence of a similar arginine demethylation process is controversial. Here, the authors show that some jumonji enzymes possess both lysine and arginine demethylase activity in vitro.
