OverviewNCBI Gene
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.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads HDAC6 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against HDAC6 could matter depends on whether native HDAC6 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
HDAC6 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label HDAC6 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
