Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histone proteins, leading to a more condensed chromatin structure and generally repressing gene expression. These enzymes play a crucial role in the regulation of gene activity by influencing the accessibility of DNA for transcription, thereby impacting various cellular processes and development.
