Function
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) catalyzes the removal of acetyl group from ε-N-acetyl lysine in histones[1]. HDAC contains Zn. DNA expression is regulated by acetylation and de-acetylation. HDAC are classified according to their domain organization to 4 classes. SAHA is a common inhibitor of HDAC. For additional details see
- Understanding of the Recruitment of HDACs by MEF2, Based on Their Structure
- Transcription and RNA Processing.
Relevance
HDAC inhibitors are used in cancer therapy[2].
