Enzyme Information
| 3.5.1.98 | 
							 Histone deacetylase. 
							based on mapping to UniProt Q92769 		
							Hydrolysis of an N(6)-acetyl-lysine residue of a histone to yield a deacetylated histone. 
							-!- A class of enzymes that remove acetyl groups from N(6)-acetyl-lysine residues on a histone. -!- The reaction of this enzyme is opposite to that of EC 2.3.1.48. -!- Histone deacetylases (HDACs) can be organized into three classes depending on sequence similarity and domain organization. -!- Histone acetylation plays an important role in regulation of gene expression. -!- In eukaryotes, HDACs play a key role in the regulation of transcription and cell proliferation. -!- May be identical to EC 3.5.1.17.
