'''Histone deacetylase''' (HDAC) catalyzes the removal of acetyl group from ε-N-acetyl lysine in histones<ref>PMID:23752268</ref>. HDAC contains Zn. DNA expression is regulated by acetylation and de-acetylation. SAHA is a common inhibitor of HDAC. HDAC are classified according to their domain organization into 4 classes. <br /> | '''Histone deacetylase''' (HDAC) catalyzes the removal of acetyl group from ε-N-acetyl lysine in histones<ref>PMID:23752268</ref>.
