The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

JmjC-domain-containing proteins and histone demethylation (2006, background): “The tetracopeptide repeat motif consists of tandem repeats of 34 amino-acid residues. that JHDM3/JMJD2 proteins might function to remove H3K9 and H3K36 methylation from transcribed ORFs during the transition from the active state to the repressed state 2,68 .”
Histone Marks in the 'Driver's Seat': Functional Roles in Steering the Transcription Cycle. (2017, background): “H3K9me2 is typically associated with heterochromatin formation and can be generated for gene silencing on active genes [87,88].”
Covalent modifications of histones during development and disease pathogenesis (2007, background): “This being said, H3K9 methylation has been observed within the body of actively transcribed genes and has been reported to be required for HP1γ recruitment to the open reading frame of a transcribed gen”
The diverse functions of histone lysine methylation (2005, background): “A recent study has challenged the generality of the association between H3-K9 methylation and gene silencing 56 .”
