Scientific Background: KDM1A or lysine (K)-specific demethylase 1A is a nuclear protein containing a SWIRM domain, a FAD-binding motif, and an amine oxidase domain that is a component of several histone deacetylase complexes and act as a histone demethylase. (1) H3K4 histone demethylase activity of KDM1A is partly responsible for the repressive activity of TAL1 and restricts TAL1 function in hematopoiesis (1). KDM1A plays an essential role for CoREST in demethylation of H3K4 both in vitro and in vivo (2).
