histone H3K4 demethylase activity [GO_0032453]
Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from a modified lysine residue at position 4 of the histone H3 protein.
histone H3K4 demethylase activity
ID: GO_0032453
Class
Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from a modified lysine residue at position 4 of the histone H3 protein.
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.
