Histone deacetylase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HDAC1 gene.Histone acetylation and deacetylation catalyzed by multisubunit complexes play a key role in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the histone deacetylase/acuc/apha family and is a component of the histone deacetylase complex.
