Function
Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Demethylation of Lys residue generates formaldehyde and succinate. May have tumor suppressor activity.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Nucleus
Tissue Specificity: Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in placenta, skeletal muscle, kidney, heart and liver
Disease Association: Diets-Jongmans syndrome (DIJOS) : An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by varying degrees of intellectual disability, developmental delay, short stature, and characteristic facial features such as a wide mouth, a pointed chin, long ears and a low columella. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
