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 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 <ref name="Vanninni">doi: :10.1038/sj.embor.7401047</ref>.
