== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/KDM4A_HUMAN KDM4A_HUMAN] Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-9' and 'Lys-36' residues of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code. Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-4', H3 'Lys-27' nor H4 'Lys-20'. Demethylates trimethylated H3 'Lys-9' and H3 'Lys-36' residue, while it has no activity on mono- and dimethylated residues. Demethylation of Lys residue generates formaldehyde and succinate. Participates in transcriptional repression of ASCL2 and E2F-responsive promoters via the recruitment of histone deacetylases and NCOR1, respectively.<ref>PMID:16024779</ref> <ref>PMID:16603238</ref> <ref>PMID:21694756</ref>   Isoform 2: Crucial for muscle differentiation, promotes transcriptional activation of the Myog gene by directing the removal of repressive chromatin marks at its promoter. Lacks the N-terminal demethylase domain.<ref>PMID:16024779</ref> <ref>PMID:16603238</ref> <ref>PMID:21694756</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The lysine demethylase JMJD2A has the unique property of binding trimethylated peptides from two different histone sequences (H3K4me3 and H4K20me3) through its tudor domains. Here we show using X-ray crystallography and calorimetry that H3K4me3 and H4K20me3, which are recognized with similar affinities by JMJD2A, adopt radically different binding modes, to the extent that we were able to design single point mutations in JMJD2A that inhibited the recognition of H3K4me3 but not H4K20me3 and vice versa.

Distinct binding modes specify the recognition of methylated histones H3K4 and H4K20 by JMJD2A-tudor.,Lee J, Thompson JR, Botuyan MV, Mer G Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2008 Jan;15(1):109-11. Epub 2007 Dec 16. PMID:18084306<ref>PMID:18084306</ref>
