Kdm8 - lysine (K)-specific demethylase 8

Predicted to enable several functions, including 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase activity; methylated histone binding activity; and peptidase activity. Involved in circadian regulation of gene expression and protein destabilization. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; early conceptus; genitourinary system; nervous system; and trachea. Orthologous to human KDM8 (lysine demethylase 8).
