Popis: | Zinc-dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate the biological function of histone and non-histone proteins through the hydrolysis of acetyllysine side chains to yield free lysine and acetate. Certain HDAC isozymes exhibit alternative catalytic activities, such as polyamine deacetylase or lysine fatty acid deacylase activity. To date, crystal structures have been reported for class I HDACs (1, 2, 3, and 8), class IIa HDACs (4 and 7), and class IIb HDACs (6 and 10). Conserved active site residues mediate the chemistry of substrate activation and hydrolysis in these isozymes through a metal-activated water molecule assisted by general base-general acid catalysis. Upregulated HDAC activity is observed in cancer and neurodegenerative disease, and four HDAC inhibitors are currently approved for use in cancer chemotherapy. Crystal structures of HDAC-inhibitor complexes guide the design of new inhibitors with high affinity and selectivity for specific HDAC isozymes implicated in human disease. |
