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.

General info
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).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the histone deacetylase family. HD type 1 subfamily.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated by PKA on serine 39. Phosphorylation reduces deacetylase activity observed preferentially on histones H3 and H4.
