Seven mammalian sirtuins are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)(+)-dependent deacetylases and are important modulators of energy metabolism and stress resistance. Two new studies by Du et al. (2011) and Peng et al. (2011) identify a new enzymatic activity for SIRT5, expanding the cellular repertoire of posttranslational modifications targeted by the sirtuins.
七种哺乳动物的沉默调节蛋白是烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸(NAD)(+)依赖性脱乙酰酶,是能量代谢和应激抵抗的重要调节剂。Du 等人(2011 年)和 Peng 等人(2011 年)的两项新研究确定了 SIRT5 的一种新的酶活性,扩大了沉默调节蛋白靶向的细胞内翻译后修饰谱。
