Subject: HDAC4 Flybase lists two histone deacetylases in the 11E-12A region. One (CG1770) is based on the BDGP blast searches, while the other (HDAC4) appears to be based on an abstract from the last National fly meeting (Mallin et al. abstract \#203A). These seem to be one and the same gene. As far as I can tell, no cDNA sequences are available for HDAC4 and I can't find HDAC4 in the genomic sequence. CG1770 is highly homologous to human HDAC4.
