histone deacetylase

Classification: - 3 classes of histone deacetylases: a) class 1: homologous to yeast Rpd3 includes HDAC-1,2,3,8 b) class 2: homologous to yeast Hda1 includes HDAC-4,5,6,7,9 c) class 3: homologous to yeast & mouse Sir2 includes SIRT-1,2,3,4,5,6,7 Function: - gives a tag for epigenetic repression - plays a role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression & developmental events - histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes - primarily involved in transcription repression through compaction of chromatin by removal of acetyl groups from Lys & exposing positive charge ...Lys-NH-Ac -> ...Lys-NH3+ - histone deacetylases have targets other than histones, including p53, E2F, GATA1, TFIIE & TFIIF Inhibition: - inhibited by trichostatin A (TSA), butyrate, trapoxin
