This is the C-terminal helical domain from Lysine-specific demethylase 5 subfamily (KDM5), which is localised between the Jumonji C (JmjC) domain and the C5HC2 zinc finger motif (Pfam:PF02928) [1-5].
Predicted zinc finger with eight potential zinc ligand binding residues. This domain is found in Jumonji [1]. This domain may have a DNA binding function.
The JmjC domain belongs to the Cupin superfamily [3]. JmjC-domain proteins may be protein hydroxylases that catalyse a novel histone modification [4]. This is confirmed to be a hydroxylase: the human JmjC protein named Tyw5p unexpectedly acts in the ...
The JmjC domain belongs to the Cupin superfamily [3]. JmjC-domain proteins may be protein hydroxylases that catalyse a novel histone modification [4]. This is confirmed to be a hydroxylase: the human JmjC protein named Tyw5p unexpectedly acts in the biosynthesis of a hypermodified nucleoside, hydroxy-wybutosine, in tRNA-Phe by catalysing hydroxylation [5].
