Summary

HDAC6 (histone deacetylase 6, HGNC:14064) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xp11.23, encoding Protein deacetylase HDAC6 (Q9UBN7). Deacetylates a wide range of non-histone substrates.

Histones play a critical role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, and developmental events. Histone acetylation/deacetylation alters chromosome structure and affects transcription factor access to DNA. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to class II of the histone deacetylase/acuc/apha family. It contains an internal duplication of two catalytic domains which appear to function independently of each other. This protein possesses histone deacetylase activity and represses transcription.

Function. Deacetylates a wide range of non-histone substrates. Plays a central role in microtubule-dependent cell motility by mediating deacetylation of tubulin. Required for cilia disassembly via deacetylation of alpha-tubulin. Alpha-tubulin deacetylation results in destabilization of dynamic microtubules. Promotes deacetylation of CTTN, leading to actin polymerization, promotion of autophagosome-lysosome fusion and completion of autophagy. Deacetylates SQSTM1. Deacetylates peroxiredoxins PRDX1 and PRDX2, decreasing their reducing activity. Deacetylates antiviral protein RIGI in the presence of viral mRNAs which is required for viral RNA detection by RIGI. Sequentially deacetylates and polyubiquitinates DNA mismatch repair protein MSH2 which leads to MSH2 degradation, reducing cellular sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents and decreasing cellular DNA mismatch repair activities. Deacetylates DNA mismatch repair protein MLH1 which prevents recruitment of the MutL alpha complex (formed by the MLH1-PMS2 heterodimer) to the MutS alpha complex (formed by the MSH2-MSH6 heterodimer), leading to tolerance of DNA damage. Deacetylates RHOT1/MIRO1 which blocks mitochondrial transport and mediates axon growth inhibition. Deacetylates transcription factor SP1 which leads to increased expression of ENG, positively regulating angiogenesis. Deacetylates KHDRBS1/SAM68 which regulates alternative splicing by inhibiting the inclusion of CD44 alternate exons. Deacetylates PRDM16. Acts as a valine sensor by binding to valine through the primate-specific SE14 repeat region. In valine deprivation conditions, translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus where it deacetylates TET2 which promotes TET2-dependent DNA demethylation, leading to DNA damage. Promotes odontoblast differentiation following IPO7-mediated nuclear import and subsequent repression of RUNX2 expression. In addition to its protein deacetylase activity, plays a key role in the degradation of misfolded proteins: when misfolded proteins are too abundant to be degraded by the chaperone refolding system and the ubiquitin-proteasome, mediates the transport of misfolded proteins to a cytoplasmic juxtanuclear structure called aggresome. Probably acts as an adapter that recognizes polyubiquitinated misfolded proteins and targets them to the aggresome, facilitating their clearance by autophagy. Involved in the MTA1-mediated epigenetic regulation of ESR1 expression in breast cancer. (Microbial infection) Deacetylates the SARS-CoV-2 N protein which promotes association of the viral N protein with human G3BP1, leading to disruption of cellular stress granule formation and facilitating viral replication.

Subunit / interactions. Forms a trimeric complex in the nucleus consisting of BANP, HDAC6 and KHDRBS1/SAM68; HDAC6 keeps KHDRBS1 in a deacetylated state which inhibits the inclusion of CD44 alternate exons. The complex is disrupted by MAPK1/MAPK3-mediated phosphorylation of BANP which results in BANP export to the cytoplasm. This facilitates acetylation of KHDRBS1 and CD44 variant exon inclusion. Interacts with SIRT2 (via both phosphorylated, unphosphorylated, active or inactive forms); the interaction is necessary for the complex to interact with alpha-tubulin. Under proteasome impairment conditions, interacts with UBD via its histone deacetylase 1 and UBP-type zinc-finger regions. Interacts with BBIP1, CBFA2T3, CYLD, DDIT3/CHOP, ZMYND15, F-actin and HDAC11. Interacts with RIPOR2; this interaction occurs during early myogenic differentiation and prevents HDAC6 to deacetylate tubulin. Interacts with AURKA; AURKA-mediated phosphorylation of HDAC6 promotes deacetylation of alpha-tubulin. Interacts with DYSF; this interaction occurs during early myogenic differentiation. Interacts with TPPP; inhibiting the tubulin deacetylase activity of HDAC6. Interacts with DYNLL1. Interacts with ATP13A2; the interaction results in recruitment of HDAC6 to lysosomes to promote CTTN deacetylation. Interacts with CCDC141 (via the N-terminal region); inhibiting the deacetylase activity of HDAC6. Interacts with IPO7; the interaction facilitates HDAC6 nuclear translocation in dental papilla cells. (Microbial infection) Interacts with G3BP1; the interaction increases during SARS-CoV-2 infection, promoting the association of G3BP1 with the viral N protein which disrupts stress granule formation and facilitates viral replication.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Nucleus. Perikaryon. Cell projection. Dendrite. Axon. Cilium. Microtubule organizing center. Centrosome. Cilium basal body.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated by AURKA; phosphorylation increases HDAC6-mediated deacetylation of alpha-tubulin and subsequent disassembly of cilia. Ubiquitinated. Its polyubiquitination however does not lead to its degradation. Sumoylated in vitro.

Disease relevance. Chondrodysplasia with platyspondyly, distinctive brachydactyly, hydrocephaly, and microphthalmia (CDP-PBHM) [MIM:300863] A disease characterized by chondrodysplasia, severe platyspondyly, hydrocephaly, and facial features with microphthalmia. Bone abnormalities include a distinctive metaphyseal cupping of the metacarpals, metatarsals, and phalanges. Affected females show a milder phenotype with small stature, sometimes associated with body asymmetry and mild intellectual disability. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Cofactor. Binds 3 Zn(2+) ions per subunit.

Domain organisation. Histone deacetylase domain 1 mediates the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity. The primate-specific SE14 repeat region contains seven SE14 repeats with the consensus sequence X-L-X-Q-T-X-S-E-X-A-X-G-G-A and mediates binding to valine.

Induction. (Microbial infection) Up-regulated by the presence of SARS-CoV-2 N protein during viral infection. The SARS-CoV-2 N protein enhances HDAC6 stability during infection by reducing its proteasomal degradation, leading to elevated HDAC6 levels.

Pathway. Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.

Miscellaneous. Required for TGF-beta1-activated gene expression associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in A549 cells.

Similarity. Belongs to the histone deacetylase family. HD type 2 subfamily.
