Kdm5b - lysine (K)-specific demethylase 5B Gene
Also Known as PUT1; Plu1; PLU-1; Rb-Bp2; Jarid1b; RBBP2H1A; mKIAA4034; D1Ertd202e; 2010009J12Rik; 2210016I17Rik
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
This gene encodes a lysine-specific Histone Demethylase that belongs to the jumonji/ARID domain-containing family of histone demethylases. The encoded protein is capable of demethylating tri-, di- and monomethylated lysine 4 of histone H3. This protein plays a role in the transcriptional repression or certain tumor suppressor genes and is upregulated in certain Cancer cells. This protein may also play a role in genome stability and DNA repair. Homozygous mutant mice display decreased body weight, decreased female fertility, lower uterine weight, and a delay in mammary development. Knockout of this gene has also been associated with embryonic lethality. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]
