MeSH Heading: Histone Deacetylases
Tree Number(s): D08.811.277.087.520
Unique ID: D006655
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D006655
Scope Note: Deacetylases that remove N-acetyl groups from amino side chains of the amino acids of HISTONES. The enzyme family can be divided into at least three structurally-defined subclasses. Class I and class II deacetylases utilize a zinc-dependent mechanism. The sirtuin histone deacetylases belong to class III and are NAD-dependent enzymes.
