Human Lysine (K)‑specific Demethylase 4C/KDM4C Alexa Fluor™ Plus 555‑conjugated Antibody

KDM4C (Lysine [K]-specific demethylase 4C; also GASC1 and JMJD2C) is a 120-140 kDa member of the JHDM3 histone demethylase family of enzymes. It is ubiquitously expressed, and specifically demethylates trimethylated lysines on histone H3 (on Lys9 and Lys36), as well as multiple non-histone methylated proteins such as WIZ, CDYL1 and G9a. Transcriptional activation occurs when it interacts with the androgen and progesterone receptors. Human KDM4C is 1056 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one jumonji N domain (aa 16-58), a catalytic jumonji C domain (aa 144-310), two PHD zinc finger regions (aa 689-865), and two TUDOR methylated-histone binding domains (aa 877-991). Three potential splice variants are reported. One demonstrates an alternative start site 23 aa upstream of the standard site, a second shows a 49 aa substitution for aa 999-1056, and a third contains a five aa substitution for aa 809-1056. Over aa 381-588, human KDM4C shares 51% aa identity with mouse KDM4C.
