Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) can regulate a series of genes encoding the detoxifying phase I and II enzymes, via a signaling crosstalk known as the "AHR-NRF2 gene battery". The chromatin transcriptional regulator Jun dimerization protein 2 (JDP2) plays a central role in thetranscription of AHR gene in response to the phase I enzyme ligand 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. It forms a transcriptional complex with AHR-AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT) and NRF2-small musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma proteins (sMAF), which are then recruited to the respective cis-elements, such as dioxin response elements and antioxidant response elements, respectively, in the AHR promoter. Here, we present a revised description of the AHR-NRF2 gene battery as the AHR-NRF2-JDP2 gene battery for transactivating the AHR promoter by phase I enzyme ligands. The chromatin regulator JDP2 was found to be involved in the movement of AHR-NRF2 complexes from the dioxin response element to the antioxidant response element in the AHR promoter, during its activation in a spatiotemporal manner. This new epigenetic and chromatin remodeling role of AHR-NRF2-JDP2 axis is useful for identifying new therapeutic targets for various diseases, including immunological response, detoxification, development, and cancer-related diseases.
