KDM3B Gene Summary [Human]
Predicted to enable chromatin DNA binding activity; histone H3-methyl-lysine-9 demethylase activity; and transcription coregulator activity. Predicted to be involved in histone H3-K9 demethylation and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleoplasm. Biomarker of acute lymphoblastic leukemia; breast cancer; colorectal cancer; and lung non-small cell carcinoma. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human KDM3B often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
