PG - 91-6 AB - Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that play a pivotal role in transcription, differentiation, and cell cycle progression. We previously cloned human HDAC3 cDNA and showed that its transfection into THP-1 cells results in G2/M cell cycle accumulation. Using bioinformatic screening and PCR, we have now cloned the murine Hdac3 cDNA, which encodes a 428-amino-acid protein with near complete identity to its human ortholog. To establish a link to a potential disease locus, we performed PCR-based chromosomal mapping for the mHdac3 gene and chromosomal fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for the human gene. mHdac3 localizes to chromosome 18 and human HDAC3 gene localizes to a syntenic region in chromosome 5 at band q31.3-q32 telomeric to the cytokine gene cluster. Transfection of mHdac3 into HeLa cells led to accumulation in G2/M. Our results suggest a cell cycle function for murine Hdac3, reflecting the complex regulatory roles of this gene family.
