    GlossaryHistone Deacetylases

    Histone Deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histone proteins, leading to a more compact and less accessible form of DNA. This process can suppress gene expression by making it harder for transcription factors to access the DNA. HDACs play a crucial role in regulating gene activity and are involved in various biological processes, including cell cycle progression and differentiation.
