Product Overview
Tag | GST |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | NM_016539 |
Synonym | SIR2L6, Sirtuin 6 |
Background | SIRT6 is a member of the sirtuin family of proteins which are homologs to the yeast Sir2 protein. Sirtuin family contain a sirtuin core domain and are grouped into four classes with SIRT6 being a member of class IV. Human SIRT6 protein is a NAD(+)-dependent histone H3 lysine-9 deacetylase that modulates telomeric chromatin (1). SIRT6 associates specifically with telomeres and SIRT6 depletion leads to telomere dysfunction with end-to-end chromosomal fusions and premature cellular senescence. SIRT6 -/- mouse cells show that SIRT6 promotes resistance to DNA damage and suppresses genomic instability in association with a role in base excision repair (2). |

Target Details
Target Function | NAD-dependent protein deacetylase involved in various processes including telomere maintenance and gene expression, and consequently has roles in genomic stability, cell senescence and apoptosis. Has very weak deacetylase activity and can bind NAD(+) in the absence of acetylated substrate. Has deacetylase activity towards histone H3K9Ac and H3K56Ac. Modulates acetylation of histone H3 in telomeric chromatin during the S-phase of the cell cycle. May also be required for the association of WRN with telomeres during S-phase and for normal telomere maintenance. Deacetylates histone H3K9Ac at NF-kappa-B target promoters and may down-regulate the expression of a subset of NF-kappa-B target genes. Deacetylation of nucleosomes interferes with RELA binding to target DNA. Acts as a corepressor of the transcription factor Hif1a to control the expression of multiple glycolytic genes to regulate glucose homeostasis. Required for normal IGF1 serum levels and normal glucose homeostasis. Regulates the production of TNF protein. Has a role in the regulation of life span. |
