Anti-JMJD2C Antibody (C-term)

This gene is a member of the Jumonji domain 2 (JMJD2) family and encodes a protein with one JmjC domain, one JmjN domain, two PHD-type zinc fingers, and two Tudor domains. This nuclear protein functions as a trimethylation-specific demethylase, converting specific trimethylated histone residues to the dimethylated form. Chromosomal aberrations and increased transcriptional expression of this gene are associated with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Lysine-specific demethylase 4C, 11411-, Gene amplified in squamous cell carcinoma 1 protein, GASC-1 protein, JmjC domain-containing histone demethylation protein 3C, Jumonji domain-containing protein 2C, KDM4C, GASC1, JHDM3C, JMJD2C, KIAA0780

This JMJD2C antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 1023-1056 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human JMJD2C.

Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-9' and 'Lys-36' residues of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-4', H3 'Lys-27' nor H4 'Lys-20'. Demethylates trimethylated H3 'Lys-9' and H3 'Lys-36' residue, while it has no activity on mono- and dimethylated residues. Demethylation of Lys residue generates formaldehyde and succinate.
