Overview

The KDM7A divergent transcript (KDM7A-DT, also known as JHDM1D-AS1) is a long non-coding RNA transcribed from the antisense strand near the KDM7A gene locus. Unlike the protein-coding KDM7A (a histone demethylase involved in epigenetic regulation), KDM7A-DT acts at the RNA level and may function as a scaffold or guide for chromatin-modifying complexes[4]. Overexpression of KDM7A-DT in fibroblast cells has been shown to induce genotoxic stress, reduce cell proliferation, and alter gene expression profiles associated with stress response and tumorigenesis[7][6]. Its expression correlates with certain cancer subtypes and may serve as a biomarker, particularly in urothelial tumors when analyzed together with JHDM1D/KDM7A expression[5]. However, it is not currently considered a druggable therapeutic target, nor are there drugs known to directly modulate its function.
