Function

Histone deacetylase that catalyzes the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) (PubMed:10748112, PubMed:10922473, PubMed:10926844, PubMed:14701748, PubMed:28497810). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events (PubMed:10748112, PubMed:10922473, PubMed:10926844, PubMed:14701748). Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes (PubMed:10748112, PubMed:10922473, PubMed:10926844, PubMed:14701748). Also involved in the deacetylation of cohesin complex protein SMC3 regulating release of cohesin complexes from chromatin (PubMed:22885700). May play a role in smooth muscle cell contractility (PubMed:15772115). In addition to protein deacetylase activity, also has protein-lysine deacylase activity: acts as a protein decrotonylase by mediating decrotonylation ((2E)-butenoyl) of histones (PubMed:28497810).

Activity summary

The protein HDAC8 also known as Histone Deacetylase 8 functions mechanically by removing acetyl groups from histone tails influencing chromatin structure and gene expression. HDAC8 has a molecular mass of roughly 41 kDa. It expresses in various tissues but shows higher expression in smooth muscle cells and certain cancer cell lines. Researchers also note its expression in the brain and liver corresponding to sections that require its deacetylase activity for various regulatory functions.

Biological function summary

HDAC8 plays a role in regulating transcription by being involved in altering chromatin structure. It does not form part of a large multi-protein complex unlike some other histone deacetylases. Its activity affects cell cycle progression and differentiation which is central to cellular physiology. HDAC8 also participates in non-histone protein deacetylation impacting various substrates allowing it to govern diverse cellular processes.

Pathways

Scientists associate HDAC8 with cell cycle regulation and muscle contraction. HDAC8 plays a role in the molecular pathways that control how myosin light chains undergo deacetylation interacting with proteins such as smooth muscle actin. During cell cycle regulation HDAC8 affects p53 a protein critical in controlling cell cycle progression and apoptosis integrating into pathways that decide cellular outcomes during division and response to stress.

Associated diseases and disorders

Researchers identify HDAC8 as having connections to certain cancers and Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS). Its deregulation links to tumorigenesis particularly in colorectal and neuroblastoma cancers where it may interact with oncogenes and tumor suppressors. In CdLS mutations that affect HDAC8 lead to developmental issues with the disorder being connected to the cohesin complex proteins which highlight HDAC8's importance in chromosomal cohesion and gene expression regulation.
