About KDM4A

Cytogenetic location: 1p34.2-p34.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:43,650,149-43,705,518 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 137 orthologues and 10 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 11.5), thyroid (RPKM 10.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the Jumonji domain 2 (JMJD2) family and encodes a protein containing a JmjN domain, a JmjC domain, a JD2H domain, two TUDOR domains, and two PHD-type zinc fingers. This nuclear protein functions as a trimethylation-specific demethylase, converting specific trimethylated histone residues to the dimethylated form, and as a transcriptional repressor.
