Functional characterization of NAD dependent de-acetylases SIRT1 and SIRT2 in B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
21 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
Sirtuins (SIRT) are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) dependent deacetylases or ADP- ribosyl transferases (ARTs) that deacetylate lysine residues on various proteins regulating a variety of cellular and metabolic processes. These enzymes regulate metabolism, cell survival, differentiation and DNA repair. SIRT proteins play an important role in the survival and drug resistance of cancer cells. The purpose...
