ADDITIONAL INFORMATION for HOS2
SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for HOS2
HOS2 encodes a histone deacetylase (4). Covalent modifications of histones, including acetylation and deacetylation, are implicated in transcriptional regulation in yeast and other eukaryotes, and have been reviewed in 5 and 6. A homozygous null hos2 mutant shows reduced sporulation (7). Four other histone deactylases, Rpd3p, Hda1p, Hos1p, and Hos3p, have been identified in yeast; all share sequence similarity (4). Different yeast histone deacetylase complexes affect transcription of distinct, partially overlapping sets of genes (4, 6).
