Summary Introduction

To review:

The activity of the drug inhibiting the histone deacetylase (HDAC) on the gene expression.

Introduction:

The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) must be separated from the histone proteins for the ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerases to get attach to DNA template for initiation of transcription.
