LSD1 is an enzyme that removes small chemical tags from the proteins DNA is wound around, switching genes off or on. Many cancers carry a lot of it and it helps keep leukaemia cells immature; several LSD1 inhibitors have been tested in blood cancers and solid tumours. This dossier gathers the 1 product (0 approved), 1 trial, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Flavin-dependent amine oxidase that demethylates mono- and dimethylated H3K4 (a mark of active genes) and, with partners, H3K9; it also acts on non-histone proteins (UniProt O60341).
