Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

HDAC7 is a class IIa histone deacetylase that functions principally as a signal-responsive transcriptional corepressor, with its biological output dictated by phosphorylation-controlled nucleocytoplasmic shuttling and by non-catalytic scaffolding activities (PMID:11279209, PMID:15623513). Its catalytic domain adopts a class IIa-specific architecture with an enlarged active-site pocket and only low intrinsic deacetylase activity (PMID:18285338), and its robust nuclear enzymatic function depends on assembly with HDAC3 through the SMRT/N-CoR corepressors (PMID:11466315). HDAC7 represses transcription by binding MEF2 family factors (MEF2A/C/D) through its N-terminal repression domain in a manner independent of the catalytic domain (PMID:11279209), a module deployed across thymocyte selection where it silences Nur77 (PMID:12753745), B-lymphoid and myeloid lineage decisions (PMID:23696748, PMID:27810920), and Th17 and Treg programs (PMID:36516268, PMID:38657041). Activation signals relocalize HDAC7 out of the nucleus: PKD1, activated downstream of the TCR or VEGF receptor, phosphorylates conserved N-terminal serines (Ser155/Ser318/Ser448, or Ser178/Ser344/Ser479) to drive cytoplasmic export and derepression of target genes (PMID:15623513, PMID:18617643), while opposing phosphatases (PP1β/MYPT1, PP2A-Bα) and the ROCK pathway restore nuclear localization and repression (PMID:17369396, PMID:23955003). Beyond MEF2 corepression, HDAC7 deacetylates an expanding set of non-histone substrates—STAT3 (PMID:29126425), β-catenin at Lys49 (PMID:35277183, PMID:30691485), HSP70 at K246 (PMID:25173798), FOXP1 (PMID:37507770), TFEB at K310 (PMID:39806423), PINK1 (PMID:41286926), and ENO1 (PMID:40536557)—thereby controlling tumor signaling, lysosomal biogenesis, mitophagy, and stem-cell senescence. It also acts as a deacetylase-independent scaffold, engaging the TRAF6-TAK1 complex and IKKα/β to drive MAPK/NF-κB inflammatory signaling (PMID:35871708, PMID:39049738), and in macrophages serves as a bifunctional immunometabolic switch coupling TLR4 signals to enzyme-independent glycolytic reprogramming and enzyme-dependent inflammatory cytokine and pentose-phosphate-pathway responses (PMID:36649417, PMID:34811804). HDAC7 protein abundance is set by competing ubiquitin and SUMO machinery: USP10 stabilizes it by deubiquitination (PMID:35277183), CBX4 and FBXW7 promote its degradation (PMID:28283560), SIK1 phosphorylates and stabilizes cytoplasmic HDAC7 to drive cardiac hypertrophy (PMID:32106109), and TRIM28-mediated sumoylation elevates its levels (PMID:39629136).
