Predicted to enable histone deacetylase activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be part of histone deacetylase complex. Is an ortholog of human HDAC10 (histone deacetylase 10).
NCBI lists Y51H1A.5 as hda-4, which has also been applied to C10E2.3. The name hda-6 avoids confusion, and reflects similarity to Dm HDAC6 and Mm HD6

Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
