KDM5/JARID (Lysine-specific demethylase 5) is a family of histone demethyltransferases involved in H3(meK4) specific demethylation.
Select an associated product type
Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-9', H3 'Lys-27', H3 'Lys-36', H3 'Lys-79' or H4 'Lys-20'. Demethylates trimethylated and dimethylated but not monomethylated H3 'Lys-4'. Regulates specific gene transcription through DNA-binding on 5'-CCGCCC-3' motif (PubMed:18270511). May stimulate transcription mediated by nuclear receptors. Involved in transcriptional regulation of Hox proteins during cell differentiation (PubMed:19430464). May participate in transcriptional repression of cytokines such as CXCL12. Plays a role in the regulation of the circadian rhythm and in maintaining the normal periodicity of the circadian clock. In a histone demethylase-independent manner, acts as a coactivator of the CLOCK-BMAL1-mediated transcriptional activation of PER1/2 and other clock-controlled genes and increases histone acetylation at PER1/2 promoters by inhibiting the activity of HDAC1 (By similarity). Seems to act as a transcriptional corepressor for some genes such as MT1F and to favor the proliferation of cancer cells (PubMed:27427228).

KDM5/JARID (Lysine-specific demethylase 5) is a family of histone demethyltransferases involved in H3(meK4) specific demethylation. KDM5/JARID demethylases are JmjC proteins that remove di- and tri-methylation from H3(meK4) but have no activity on mono-methylated residues.
KDM5/JARID Activity Quantification Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab113463) is designed for the easy and fast colorimetric measurement of KDM5/JARID activity or inhibition. The antibody-based, immunospecific method directly detects KDM5/JARID-converted demethylated products, rather than by-products, in a 96 stripwell microplate format.
