Scientific Background: | 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. |
