Background
This gene is a member of the SMCY homolog family and encodes a protein with one ARID domain, one JmjC domain, one JmjN domain and two PHD-type zinc fingers. The DNA-binding motifs suggest this protein is involved in the regulation of transcription and chromatin remodeling. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked mental retardation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009],
Function
cofactor:Alpha-ketoglutarate.,cofactor:Fe(2+).,disease:Defects in KDM5C are a cause of X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) [MIM:300534]. Mental retardation is usually defined as cognitive impairment with an IQ less than 70. Etiologically, mental retardation is a very heterogeneous condition that involves environmental, stochastic and/or genetic factors.,domain:Both the JmjC domain and the JmjN domain are required for enzymatic activity.,domain:The first PHD-type zinc finger domain recognizes and binds H3-K9Me3.,function:Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-9', H3 'Lys-27', H3 'Lys-36', H3 'Lys-79' or H4 'Lys-20'. Demethylates trimethylated and dimethylated but not monomethylated H3 'Lys-4'. Participates in transcriptional repression of neuronal genes by recruiting hist
