General description

Full length, recombinant, human histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) fused to GST at the N-terminus and expressed in S. frugiperda insect cells using a baculovirus expression system. Actively maintained in the cytoplasm, HDAC6 is uniquely dependent on its ubiquitin-binding domain and functions at the nexus between two cellular signaling systems, involving protein acetylation and ubiquitination. The active deacetylase is useful in the study of HDAC6 regulation and for inhibitor screening.
