Gene ID: 79831 | Gene type: protein coding

About KDM8

Cytogenetic location: 16p12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:27,203,526-27,221,768 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Broad expression in liver (RPKM 13.5), small intestine (RPKM 5.4) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

This gene likely encodes a histone lysine demethylase. Studies of a similar protein in mouse indicate a potential role for this protein as a tumor suppressor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
