Gene Information

human ... HDAC2(3066)

General description

HDAC2 is a member of the deacetylase family that forms transcriptional repressor complexes. Studies have reported that HDAC2 negatively regulates synaptic plasticity, learning and memory functions. In colorectal carcinogenesis, loss of APC is known to induce HDAC2 expression.
Rabbit Anti-HDAC2 recognizes bovine, human, canine, chicken, rat, and mouse HDAC2.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human HDAC2

Application

Rabbit Anti-HDAC2 antibody can be used for western blot (0.2-2.0μg/ml) and IHC (4-8μg/ml) applications.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2), or transcriptional regulator homolog RPD3 L1, is highly homologous to the yeast transcription factor RPD3 (reduced potassium dependency 3) gene. As in yeast, human HDA2 is likely to be involved in regulating chromatin structure during transcription. It has been implicated to associate with YY1, a mammalian zinc-finger transcription factor, which negatively regulates transcription by tethering RPD3 to DNA as a cofactor. This process is highly concerved from yeast to human.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: EEFSDSEDEGEGGRRNVADHKKGAKKARIEEDKKETEDKKTDVKEEDKSK

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Chromatin modifications, especially histone-tail acetylation, have been implicated in memory formation. Increased histone-tail acetylation induced by inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACis) facilitates learning and memory in wild-type mice as well as in mouse models of neurodegeneration. Harnessing the therapeutic potential

Recent studies have demonstrated the involvement of epigenetic mechanisms in psychiatric disorders, including alcoholism. Here, we investigated the effects of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, trichostatin A (TSA) on amygdaloid HDAC-induced histone deacetylation and neuropeptide Y (NPY) expression and on anxiety-like
