Related Product Information for HDAC2 active protein

HDAC2, like the highly homologous HDAC1, is a class I HDAC first identified as a human homolog of the yeast histone deacetylase Rpd3. HDAC2 found, along with HDAC1 in the Sin3, NuRD. In contrast to class II HDACs, which repress cardiac hypertrophy, HDAC2 activity is required for the cardiac hypertrophic response.

NCBI Description

This gene product belongs to the histone deacetylase family. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes, and are responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues at the N-terminal regions of core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). This protein forms transcriptional repressor complexes by associating with many different proteins, including YY1, a mammalian zinc-finger transcription factor. Thus, it plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Uniprot Description

HDAC2: a transcriptional regulator of the histone deacetylase family, subfamily 1. Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation plays a role in epigenetic repression and transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes.
