Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=3; Comment=Additional isoforms seem to exist.; Name=1; IsoId=Q9BY66-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q9BY66-2; Sequence=VSP_000317; Name=3; IsoId=Q9BY66-3; Sequence=VSP_043320; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
CofactorName=Fe(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29033; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:17320162}; Note=Binds 1 Fe(2+) ion per subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17320162};
CofactorName=L-ascorbate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:38290; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:17320162};
DomainThe JmjC domain is required for enzymatic activity.
FunctionHistone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys- 4' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-9', H3 'Lys-27', H3 'Lys-36', H3 'Lys-79' or H4 'Lys-20'. Demethylates trimethylated and dimethylated but not monomethylated H3 'Lys-4'. May play a role in spermatogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17320160, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17320162, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17351630}.
