Abstract Reversible histone acylation is crucial for epigenetic gene expression regulation. Histone acylation is typically mediated by lysine acyltransferases (KATs), which use acyl-CoAs as acyl donors. Here, we revealed the novel role of the histone deacetylases HDAC1 and HDAC2 in histone acylation catalysis. Notably, we show that HDAC1 and HDAC2 directly catalyze sorbylation using sorbic acid, a common food preservative, in addition to facilitating desorbylation. This newly discovered HDAC1/2-driven histone sorbylation function is a distinctive active epigenetic mark that leads to widespread changes in the expression of genes, particularly those involved in cholesterol biosynthesis. Our findings reveal that HDAC1/2 are unique enzymes capable of catalyzing not only the removal but also formation of histone modifications in response to exogenous carboxylic acids such as sorbic acid and benzoic acid. Our results highlight the impact of carboxylic acids found in the environment, such as food additives, on gene expression changes that occur via histone lysine modification regulated by HDAC1 and HDAC2.
Ein Katalysator für zwei Aktivierungen: Kationische Pd- und Pt-Komplexe katalysieren die enantioselektive Aldolreaktion von β-Ketoestern mit Acetalen (siehe Schema). Wegen der Bildung von Metallenolaten unter sauren Bedingungen können die Acetale als Elektrophile eingesetzt werden. Die gewünschten Aldolprodukte entstehen hoch diastereo- und enantioselektiv.

The asymmetric fluorination of β-keto carbonyl compounds has attracted interest due to the enhanced pharmaceutical activity of F-containing compounds. Here, the enantioselective electrophilic fluorination of aryl acetic acid derivatives is reported and can afford after cleavage of the thiooxazolidinone moiety chiral α-monofluorinated carboxylic acids without loss of stereochemical information (see reviews below).
Zwei sind nicht genug: Das binäre System aus einem Ni(OTf)2-Binap-Komplex und 2,6-Lutidin war ungeeignet für die asymmetrische Fluorierung von Esteräquivalenten, auf Zusatz einer substöchiometrischen Menge an Et3SiOTf katalysierte das System NiCl2-Binap/2,6-Lutidin hingegen die Bildung der monofluorierten Produkte in guten Ausbeuten und mit hohen Enantioselektivitäten (siehe Beispiel). NFSI=N-Fluorbenzolsulfonimid, Tf=Trifluormethansulfonyl.
