Project name: Mus musculus

Description: Previously published data suggested some redundant functions between HDAC1 and HDAC2 in mouse. To test this hypothesis, we used microarrays to have a genome wide analysis at the transcription level of primary MEFs lacking HDAC1, HDAC2.Overall design: MEF HDAC1 F/F were were transduced with two different retroviruses: one virus expresses the Tamoxifen-inducible cre recombinase Cre-ERT2 and the second virus expresses either a small hairpin micro-RNA against HDAC2 or a scrambled version. HDAC1F/F MEFs expressing either a scrambled micro-RNA or a micro-RNA against HDAC2 can be induced by addition of Tamoxifen to delete HDAC1, thereby generating four different genotypes: WT, HDAC1 KO, HDAC2 knockdown (Kd) and HDAC1/2 KO/Kd.
