Kdm5c Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables histone H3K4 demethylase activity. Involved in negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early conceptus; gonad; limb; and metanephros. Used to study syndromic X-linked intellectual disability Claes-Jensen type. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in descending colon cancer and syndromic X-linked intellectual disability Claes-Jensen type. Orthologous to human KDM5C (lysine demethylase 5C).

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 mouse Kdm5c often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
