Reaction: a [protein]-L-histidine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = a [protein]-(3S)-3-hydroxy-L-histidine + succinate + CO2
Other name(s): RIOX1 (gene name); RIOX2 (gene name); protein histidyl hydroxylase
Systematic name: protein-L-histidine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3S-hydroxylating)
Comments: The human enzymes encoded by the RIOX1 and RIOX2 genes catalyse the hydroxylation of L-histidine residues in the 60S ribosomal proteins Rpl8 and L27a, respectively. Both proteins contain JmjC and winged helix domains, and both also catalyse histone L-lysine demethylation activities.
