MutL homolog 1 (MLH1) is a key DNA mismatch repair protein, which plays an important role in maintenance of genomic stability and the DNA damage response. Here, we report that MLH1 is a novel substrate of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6). HDAC6 interacts with and deacetylates MLH1 both <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> Interestingly, deacetylation of MLH1 blocks the assembly of the MutSα-MutLα complex. Moreover, we have identified four novel acetylation sites in MLH1 by MS analysis. The deacetylat ...[more]
