Biological and catalytic functions of sirtuin 6 as targets for small-molecule modulators
9 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is a nuclear NAD 1 -dependent deacetylase of histone H3 that regulates genome stability and gene expression. However, nonhistone substrates and additional catalytic activities of SIRT6, including long-chain deacylation and mono-ADP-ribosylation of other proteins, have also been reported, but many of these noncanonical roles remain enigmatic. Genetic studies have revealed critical homeostatic...
