Recombinant Human Histone Deacetylase 8, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: HDAC8-759H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) was fused to at the C-terminus to a His•Tag sequence at and expressed inS. frugiperdainsect cells using a baculovirus expression system. MW = 46400 Da.

Specification

• Cat. No.: HDAC8-759H
• Description: HDAC8 phosphorylated in vivo by PKA results in decreased activity, which leads to the hyperacetylation of histones H3 and H4. HDAC8 may play a role in one of the most frequent types of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The active deacetylase is useful in the study of HDAC8 regulation and for inhibitor screening.
• Source: S. frugiperda.
