RAD23B (Lysine-specific demethylase RAD23B) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, a biomarker and a DNA repair gene, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Sarcomas.
Multifunctional protein that participates in histone H4K20 demethylation, DNA repair, ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation and transcriptional regulation. Specifically demethylates mono-, di- and trimethylated 'Lys-20' of histone H4 (H4K20me1, H4K20me2, H4K20me3, respectively) into unmethylated forms. Activates the transcription of coding genes by demethylating H4K20me1 and the transcription of repetitive elements by demethylating H4K20me3.
CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant, naming Vorinostat.

No product in this corpus aims at RAD23B yet. Inhibitors are shaped to fit the enzyme's active site so the reaction the cancer relies on stops.
Broadly expressed or essential: HPA finds the RNA at low tissue specificity; a medicine acting on the wild-type protein would expose normal tissue too. HPA RAD23B: RNA low tissue specificity; high antibody staining in 37 normal tissues; highest cancer staining prostate cancer (12 of 12 high). Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Sarcomas (soft tissue, bone, GIST)); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (Rule 7 of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts.)

Activates the transcription of coding genes by demethylating H4K20me1 and the transcription of repetitive elements by demethylating H4K20me3. Multiubiquitin chain receptor involved in modulation of proteasomal degradation. Binds to polyubiquitin chains. Proposed to be capable to bind simultaneously to the 26S proteasome and to polyubiquitinated substrates and to deliver ubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome. Location: Nucleus; Cytoplasm (UniProt). Locus 9q31.2 (HGNC).
RNA: low tissue specificity, detected in all normal tissues.
Medium: Caudate, Heart muscle, Lung, Lymph node, Skeletal muscle, Smooth muscle, Spleen.
Medium only: melanoma.
