HDAC1 also known as Histone Deacetylase 1 is a member of the histone deacetylase family with a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. Mechanically HDAC1 removes acetyl groups from lysine residues on histone proteins an action known as histone deacetylation. This process causes chromatin structure to become more compact which leads to transcriptional repression. HDAC1 is broadly expressed in various tissues particularly in the brain heart and kidneys and is vital for cellular development and differentiation./ Biological function summary The enzymatic activity of histone deacetylase effectively controls gene expression. HDAC1 participates as a part of the multiprotein complexes including SIN3 and NuRD which play vital roles in the regulation of transcription. By altering the acetylation state of histones HDAC1 influences chromatin remodeling thereby affecting the accessibility of transcription factors to DNA and controlling genes necessary for cell cycle progression and proliferation./ Pathways/ The function of HDAC1 fits into the regulation of the cell cycle and apoptosis pathways. In the cell cycle pathway HDAC1 interacts with other histone deacetylases (HDACs) and plays a role in controlling the progression of the cell division. The interplay between HDAC1 and proteins such as p53 further showcases its regulatory activity in apoptosis ensuring cell survival or programmed cell death when necessary./
