Protein function

Encodes a lysine-specific histone demethylase involved in the regulation of DNA methylation at the FWA locus.

Phenotype

Multiple mutant:
ldl1;ldl2 multiple mutant is late flowering under LD conditions. [Jiang et al., 2007][Shafiq et al., 2014][Caro et al., 2012]

Single mutant:
ldl2 single mutant is not late flowering under LD. ( No data available under SD conditions.) [Jiang et al., 2007]

Function:
Probable histone demethylase that reduces the levels of histone H3 Lys-4 methylation in chromatin of the floral repressor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) and the sporophytically silenced floral repressor FWA. Seems to act in partial redundancy with FLOWERING LOCUS D (FLD) to repress FLC expression. Required for cytosine methylation of FWA. [Data from UniProt]
