Also known as KIAA1082NET22
Summary
KDM3B (lysine demethylase 3B, HGNC:1337) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 5q31.2, encoding Lysine-specific demethylase 3B (Q7LBC6). Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates ‘Lys-9’ of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code.
Predicted to enable chromatin DNA binding activity; histone H3K9 demethylase activity; and transcription coregulator activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleoplasm. Biomarker of acute lymphoblastic leukemia; breast cancer; colorectal cancer; and lung non-small cell carcinoma.

All UniProt accessions (3): H0Y946, H0Y9V5, Q7LBC6
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates ‘Lys-9’ of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Demethylation of Lys residue generates formaldehyde and succinate. May have tumor suppressor activity.
Subcellular location. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in placenta, skeletal muscle, kidney, heart and liver.
Disease relevance. Diets-Jongmans syndrome (DIJOS) [MIM:618846] An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by varying degrees of intellectual disability, developmental delay, short stature, and characteristic facial features such as a wide mouth, a pointed chin, long ears and a low columella. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Cofactor. Binds 1 Fe(2+) ion per subunit.
Domain organisation. Leu-Xaa-Xaa-Leu-Leu (LXXLL) motifs are known to mediate the association with nuclear receptors.
Miscellaneous. Its gene is located in the 5q region of the genome which is deleted in del(5q) interstitial deletion, a frequent deletion found in myeloid leukemias and myelodysplasias, suggesting that it may be a good candidate for the del(5q) tumor suppressor gene.
Similarity. Belongs to the JHDM2 histone demethylase family.
