Through the structure of this oligomer that was obtained by crystallography, we can see that HDAC9 is kept <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_1/Binding/3'>relatively far from the genomic DNA </scene> even after MEF2 binding to the chromosome. We can also easily observe a very well <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_1/Conservation/7'>evolutionary conserved region</scene> near the DNA binding site of MEF2.

Additionally, by looking to the <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_1/False_dimer/2'>structure</scene> obtained by X-ray crystallography, one could also think that complexes HDAC9/MEF2/DNA dimerize ''in vivo''. During the crystallization process, two complexes were contained in the same asymmetric unit, giving such a false impression. Thus, it is important to emphasize that the biological unit would be composed only by <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_1/Complex/5'>a monomer of HDAC9, a dimer of MEF2 and a fragment of double strand DNA</scene>.
