Facts about Histone deacetylase 4.
Histone deacetylases act via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Involved in muscle maturation through its interaction with the myocyte enhancer factors like MEF2A, MEF2C and MEF2D.

Ubiquitous.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Upon muscle cells differentiation, it accumulates in the nuclei of myotubes, suggesting a positive role of nuclear HDAC4 in muscle differentiation. The export to cytoplasm depends on the interaction with a 14-3-3 chaperone protein and is due to its phosphorylation at Ser-246, Ser-467 and Ser-632 by CaMK4 and SIK1. The nuclear localization probably depends on sumoylation. Interaction with SIK3 leads to HDAC4 retention in the cytoplasm (By similarity).
