01

Overview

Lysine-specific demethylase 4E (KDM4E), also known as JMJD2E, is a histone lysine demethylase that removes methyl groups from lysine 9 on histone H3 (H3K9). It plays a role in epigenetic regulation by influencing chromatin structure and gene expression. KDM4E belongs to the KDM4/JMJD2 subfamily of histone demethylases and utilizes oxygen and 2-oxoglutarate as cofactors for its demethylation activity. It is being investigated as a potential therapeutic target, particularly in cancer.
