SYNONYMS
Histone deacetylase 2, YAF1, HD2, YY1-associated factor 1, transcriptional regulator homolog RPD3, RPD3, EC 3.5.1.98.
INTRODUCTION
HDAC2 is a member of the histone deacetylase family that performs through the construction of large multiprotein complexes and are in charge of the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal region of the core histones. HDAC2 forms transcriptional repressor complexes by relating to a diversity of proteins, like YY1- a mammalian zinc-finger transcription factor.
In addition, HDAC2 has a vital part in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental procedures.
DESCRIPTION
HDAC2 Human Recombinant produced in Hi-5 Cell is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 496 amino acids (1-488) and having a molecular mass of 56.4 kDa.
The HDAC2 is fused to an 8 amino acid His-Tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
