FAD-dependent H3K4me/H3K4me3 demethylase activity [GO_0140682]

Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from a di- or a monomethyl-lysine residue at position 4 of the histone H3 protein. This is a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent amine oxidation reaction.

FAD-dependent H3K4me/H3K4me3 demethylase activity

ID: GO_0140682

Class

Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from a di- or a monomethyl-lysine residue at position 4 of the histone H3 protein. This is a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent amine oxidation reaction.

Comment: Note that the residue position corresponds to the canonical human H3 histone (UniProtKB:P84243); this residue is conserved across all eukaryotes. Residue 1 is the first residue following removal of the initiating Methionine (Met). Note that each histone is encoded by multiple genes, and sequences may vary across different genes within an organism.
