Summary: Enables enzyme binding activity; histone H3K9 demethylase activity; and nuclear androgen receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including blastocyst formation; regulation of stem cell differentiation; and stem cell population maintenance. Located in pericentric heterochromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; eye; genitourinary system; rib; and telencephalon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autistic disorder; breast cancer; carcinoma (multiple); head and neck cancer; and withdrawal disorder. Orthologous to human KDM4C (lysine demethylase 4C).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
