JMJD2B
Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys- 9' of histone H3, thereby playing a role in histone code. Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-4', H3 'Lys-27', H3 'Lys-36' nor H4 'Lys-20'. Only able to demethylate trimethylated H3 'Lys-9', with a weaker activity than KDM4A, KDM4C and KDM4D. Demethylation of Lys residue generates formaldehyde and succinate. Belongs to the JHDM3 histone demethylase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
