Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from lysine at position 9 of the histone H3 protein. Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from lysine at position 4 of the histone H3 protein. Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from a substrate. Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from a histone. Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from arginine at position 2 of the histone H3 protein. Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from arginine at position 3 of the histone H4 protein. Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. Catalysis of the reaction: methyl-lysine + alpha-ketoglutarate + O2 = succinate + CO2 + formaldehyde + lysine. The methyl-lysine residue is at position 36 of histone 3. Catalysis of the removal of a methyl group from lysine at position 27 of the histone H3 protein.
