Abstract | Cited by

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play crucial roles in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Here, we report CM-Bhc-SAHA, a novel caged HDAC inhibitor, genetically targeting cells of interest. Mammalian cells expressing porcine liver esterase led to the optochemical inhibition of endogenous HDAC activity when treated with CM-Bhc-SAHA and irradiated with 405 nm light.
