Anti-HDAC6

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. HDAC6, also called KIAA0901, is a member belongs to class II of the histone deacetylase/acuc/apha family of proteins that is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HDAC6 gene. The HDAC6 gene is mapped to chromosome Xp11.23. HDAC6 contains an internal duplication of two catalytic domains which appear to function independently of each other. The protein possesses histone deacetylase activity and represses transcription. HDAC6 functions as a tubulin deacetylase. And it is localized exclusively in the cytoplasm, where it associates with microtubules and localizes with the microtubule motor complex. HDAC6 could bind both polyubiquitinated misfolded proteins and dynein motors, thereby recruiting misfolded protein cargo to dynein motors for transport to aggresomes. Furthermore, expression of HDAC6 was sufficient to rescue degeneration associated with UPS dysfunction in vivo in an autophagy-dependent manner. HDAC6 is a central component of the stress response that regulates SG formation and potentially contributes to control of RNA metabolism and translation. Protein function: Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Plays a central role in microtubule-dependent cell motility via deacetylation of tubulin. Involved in the MTA1-mediated epigenetic regulation of ESR1 expression in breast cancer. [The UniProt Consortium]
