Background InformationSirtuins are hypothesized to play a key role in an organism's response to stresses (such as heat or starvation) and to be responsible for the lifespan-extending effects of calorie restriction. Sirtuins act by removing acetyl groups from proteins in the presence of NAD+; they are thus classified as "NAD+-dependent deacetylases". Mammals have seven sirtuins; SIRT1 and SIRT2 occupy the cytoplasm. SIRT2 is a NAD-dependent deacytylase. It has been shown to control gene silencing, cell cycle, and DNA damage repair. In additon, SIRT2 acts as a tumor suppressor in human gliomas which suggests that the ectopic expression of SIRT2 upsets the microtubule network.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a member of the sirtuin family of proteins, homologs to the yeast Sir2 protein. Members of the sirtuin family are characterized by a sirtuin core domain and grouped into four classes. The functions of human sirtuins have not yet been determined; however, yeast sirtuin proteins are known to regulate epigenetic gene silencing and suppress recombination of rDNA. Studies suggest that the human sirtuins may function as intracellular regulatory proteins with mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. The protein encoded by this gene is included in class I of the sirtuin family. Two transcript variants result from alternative splicing of this gene.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: NAD-dependent deacetylase, which deacetylates the 'Lys-40' of alpha-tubulin. Involved in the control of mitotic exit in the cell cycle, probably via its role in the regulation of cytoskeleton. Despite some ability to deacetylate histones in vitro, it is unlikely in vivo.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: NAD+ + an acetylprotein = nicotinamide + O-acetyl-ADP-ribose + a protein.

COFACTOR: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.

ENZYME REGULATION: Inhibited by Sirtinol, A3 and M15 small molecules. Inhibited by nicotinamide.

SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Interacts with HDAC6, suggesting that these proteins belong to a large complex that deacetylate the cytoskeleton.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm › cytoskeleton. Note: Colocalizes with microtubules.

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed. Highly expressed in heart, brain and skeletal muscle, while it is weakly expressed in placenta and lung. Down-regulated in many gliomas suggesting that it may act as a tumor suppressor gene in human gliomas possibly through the regulation of microtubule network.

DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Peaks during mitosis. After mitosis, it is probably degraded by the 26S proteasome.

PTM: Phosphorylated at the G2/M transition of the cell cycle.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the sirtuin family.

Contains 1 deacetylase sirtuin-type domain.

SEQUENCE CAUTION: The sequence AAF67015.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at several positions.
Molecular WeightObserved molecular weight is ~39 kDa. Multiple isoforms around 40 kDa may be observed.
