Coordinated repression of cell cycle genes by KDM5A and E2F4 during differentiation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Epigenetic regulation underlies the robust changes in gene expression that occur during development. How precisely epigenetic enzymes contribute to development and differentiation processes is largely unclear. Here we show that one of the enzymes that removes the activating epigenetic mark of trimethylated lysine 4 on histone H3, lysine (K)-specific demethylase 5A (KDM5A), reinforces the effects of the retinoblastoma (RB) family of transcriptional repressors on differentiation. Global location analysis showed that KDM5A cooccupies a substantial portion of target genes with the E2F4 transcription factor. During ES cell differentiation, knockout of KDM5A resulted in derepression of multiple genomic loci that are targets of KDM5A, denoting a direct regulatory function. In terminally differentiated cells, common KDM5A and E2F4 gene targets were bound by the pRB-related protein p130, a DREAM complex component. KDM5A was recruited to the transcription start site regions independently of E2F4; however, it cooperated with E2F4 to promote a state of deepened repression at cell cycle genes during differentiation. These findings reveal a critical role of H3K4 demethylation by KDM5A in the transcriptional silencing of genes that are suppressed by RB family members in differentiated cells.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
