Jmjd8 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction; positive regulation of sprouting angiogenesis; and regulation of pyruvate kinase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular respiration and sprouting angiogenesis. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human JMJD8 (jumonji domain containing 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 rat Jmjd8 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
