Lysine-specific demethylase 4C is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KDM4C gene.[5][6][7]

Function[]

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 belongs to the alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent hydroxylase superfamily. It 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.[7] A expressional decrease of KDM4C was found during cardiac differentation of murine embryonic stem cells.[8]

Model organisms[]

Model organisms have been used in the study of KDM4C function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Kdm4ctm1a(KOMP)Wtsi[14][15] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[16][17][18]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[12][19] Twenty five tests were carried out on mutant mice and two significant abnormalities were observed.[12] Homozygous mutant males had decreased haematocrit and haemoglobin levels, while animals of both sex displayed an increase in sebaceous gland size.[12]
