SIRT1 Prevents R-Loops during Chronological Aging by Modulating DNA Replication at rDNA Loci
15 Nov 2023
Abstract excerpt
In metazoans, the largest sirtuin, SIRT1, is a nuclear protein implicated in epigenetic modifications, circadian signaling, DNA recombination, replication, and repair. Our previous studies have demonstrated that SIRT1 binds replication origins and inhibits replication initiation from a group of potential initiation sites (dormant origins). We studied the effects of aging and SIRT1 activity on replication origin...
