| + | [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histone Histones] are a family of basic, positively charged proteins that associate with DNA inside the nucleus to help condense the DNA into [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatin chromatin] <ref name="Histones"> Histones | Learn Science at Scitable https://www.nature.com/scitable/definition/histone-histones-57</ref>.  The nuclear DNA is wrapped around the histone in order to fit in the nucleus.  [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleosome Nucleosomes] are chromatin beads made up of DNA wrapped around eight histone proteins, or a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histone_octamer histone octamer] <ref name="Histones" />.

| + | ε-Amino-lysine acetylation is a type of histone modification that controls the stability of proteins and  biological function in eukaryotic cells <ref name="Vanninni">doi:10.1038/sj.embor.7401047</ref>.   Histone Deacetylation is the reversal process for this acetylation modification.  There are different classes of HDACs based on phylogenetic analysis:  | ||

| + | •Class I - HDACs 1-3 and 8, which are homologous to yeast Rpd3  | ||
| + | |||
| + | •Class II - HDACs 4-7, 9 and 10, which are homologous to yeast Hda1  | ||
| + | |||
| + | •Class III - Sirtuin deacetylases   | ||
| + | |||
| + | •Class IV - HDAC 11 <ref name="Vanninni" />.  | ||
