products description :
Recombinant human KDM2A (1-748) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. Scientific Background: KDM2A or lysine (K)-specific demethylase 2A is a member of the F-box protein family that are components of the modular E3 ubiquitin protein ligases called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination (1). KDM2A belongs to the Fbls class and, in addition to the presence of an F-box, contains at least six highly degenerated leucine-rich repeats which play a role in epigenetic silencing. The demethylase activity of the JmjC domain-containing proteins is conserved from yeast to human (2).

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbls class and, in addition to an F-box, contains at least six highly degenerated leucine-rich repeats. This family member plays a role in epigenetic silencing. It nucleates at CpG islands and specifically demethylates both mono- and di-methylated lysine-36 of histone H3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
uniprot summary :
Function: Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-36' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Preferentially demethylates dimethylated H3 'Lys-36' residue while it has weak or no activity for mono- and tri-methylated H3 'Lys-36'. May also recognize and bind to some phosphorylated proteins and promote their ubiquitination and degradation. Required to maintain the heterochromatic state. Associates with centromeres and represses transcription of small non-coding RNAs that are encoded by the clusters of satellite repeats at the centromere. Required to sustain centromeric integrity and genomic stability, particularly during mitosis. Ref.12 Ref.14. Catalytic activity: Protein N6,N(6)-dimethyl-L-lysine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = protein N(6)-methyl-L-lysine + succinate + formaldehyde + CO2. Ref.12Protein N(6)-methyl-L-lysine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = protein L-lysine + succinate + formaldehyde + CO2. Ref.12. Cofactor: Binds 1 Fe2+ ion per subunit. Ref.12. Subunit structure: Part of a SCF (SKP1-cullin-F-box) protein ligase complex . By similarity. Interacts with CBX5/HP1A; the interaction promotes CBX5 localization to chromatin. Ref.14. Subcellular location: Nucleus nucleoplasm. Note: Punctate expression throughout the nucleoplasm and enriched in the perinucleolar region. Specifically nucleates at CpG islands where it's presence results in chromatin depleted in H3K36me2. Ref.14 Ref.19. Tissue specificity: Widely expressed, with highest levels in brain, testis and ovary, followed by lung. Ref.4. Domain: The JmjC domain mediates demethylation activity and is required for satellite silencing. Ref.12 Ref.19The CXXC zinc finger preferentially recognizes nonmethylated CpG DNA, and binding is blocked when the CpG DNA is methylated. Ref.12 Ref.19. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the JHDM1 histone demethylase family.Contains 1 CXXC-type zinc finger.Contains 1 F-box domain.Contains 1 JmjC domain.Contains 6 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats.Contains 1 PHD-type zinc finger.
