In article number 2002680, Jun Cui and co‐workers identify a new histone modifier‐USP38, that modulates histone ubiquitination and methylation to resolve inflammatory response. USP38 acts as a “Safety Machine” which shuts down the inflammation by de‐ubiquitinating histone H2B and stabilizes KDM5B to de‐methylate H3K4, which blocks the transcription of pro‐inflammatory genes. The USP38‐KDM5B complex might be a potential clinical target for therapy against inflammatory diseases.
