Gene: KDM6A

Alternate names for this Gene: KABUK2|UTX|bA386N14.2

Gene Summary: This gene is located on the X chromosome and is the corresponding locus to a Y-linked gene which encodes a tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) protein. The encoded protein of this gene contains a JmjC-domain and catalyzes the demethylation of tri/dimethylated histone H3. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: X

Location in Chromosome : Xp11.3

Description of this Gene: lysine demethylase 6A

Type of Gene: protein-coding
