Abstract:
Histone deacetylases have been described as crucial cofactors of mammalian transcriptional complexes. We have recently identified human histone deacetylase HDAC3 on chromosome 5q31 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in a region commonly deleted in malignant myeloid disease. Since HDAC3 carries strong potential to be a tumor suppressor gene, we report herein its exact position between the CD14 and GRIA1 genes within the 5q31.1 subband.
