“…Additional phosphorylation sites have been identified in class IIa HDACs, including Ser-298 of HDAC4 (36), Ser-253 of the HDAC9 splice variant (78,82), and multiple residues of HDAC4 and HDAC5 reported by phosphoproteomic studies (see the Human Protein Reference Database) (79,80,83,84), suggesting that complex multisite phosphorylation programs may respond to cAMP and other upstream signaling cues (Fig. 8).…”
