HDAC8 (histone deacetylase 8) is a class I enzyme, that has 377 residues and it lies between class I and class II HDACs. This gene is located on X chromosome. It consists of a single α/β domain, in which eight parallely stranded β sheets are sandwiched between 13 α helices.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human HDAC8 around the phosphorylation site of Ser39.
Immunogen Range: 5-54
Biochem/physiol Actions
HDAC8 (histone deacetylase 8), with the help of PKA (cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase A), plays a major role in confirming the acetylation state of histones. This protein may also play an important role in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Suppression of HDAC8 by RNA interference stops the growth of lung, colon, and cervical cancer cell lines.
