HDAC9 (Histone deacetylase 9) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, a biomarker and a fusion partner, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Breast cancer, Oesophageal cancer, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 4 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal part of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone deacetylation gives a tag for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression and developmental events. Represses MEF2-dependent transcription. Isoform 3 lacks active site residues and therefore is catalytically inactive. Represses MEF2-dependent transcription by recruiting HDAC1 and/or HDAC3. Seems to inhibit skeletal myogenesis and to be involved in heart development. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 7p21.1 (HGNC).
