The Retinoblastoma Binding Protein RBP2 is an H3K4 demethylase

The roles of histone demethylase RBP2 in gene expression were assessed using gene expression profiling experiments with wild type and RBP2-/- primary MEFs. Several cytokine genes including SDF1 and Kit ligand were upregulated upon inactivation of RBP2.
