Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 79831
Gene name Lysine demethylase 8
Gene symbol KDM8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
JMJD5
Chromosome 16
Chromosome location 16p12.1
Summary This gene likely encodes a histone lysine demethylase. Studies of a similar protein in mouse indicate a potential role for this protein as a tumor suppressor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
