Scientific Background

Histone deacetylase 5, also called HDAC5 or KIAA0600, is an enzyme that in humans is encodes by the HDAC5 gene. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the class II histone deacetylase/acuc/apha family. This gene is mapped to 17q21.31. Histones play a critical role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, and developmental events. Histone acetylation/deacetylation alters chromosome structure and affects transcription factor access to DNA. It possesses histone deacetylase activity and represses transcription when tethered to a promoter. It coimmunoprecipitates only with HDAC3 family member and might form multicomplex proteins. It also interacts with myocyte enhancer factor-2 (MEF2) proteins, resulting in repression of MEF2-dependent genes. This gene is thought to be associated with colon cancer.
