==HDAC8 Structure==


The crystal structure of human HDAC8 was determined using x-ray crystallography at a 2.0Å resolution. <ref name="Vannini, A., Volpari, C., Gallinari, P.">Vannini, A., Volpari, C., Gallinari, P., Jones, P., Mattu, M., Carfí, A., ... & Di Marco, S.

EMBO reports, 8(9), 879-884. https://doi.org/10.1038/sj.embor.7401047 </ref> The structure includes two structural K ion and one catalytic Zn ion.
