Scientific Background: SIRT1 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 SIRT1 being a member of class I. SIRT1 is a stress-response and chromatin-silencing factor (1). It is an NAD (+)-dependent histone deacetylase involved in various nuclear events such as transcription, DNA replication, and DNA repair. SIRT1 protein binds and deacetylates the p53 protein (2). Expression of wild type SIRT1 in human cells reduces the transcriptional activity of p53 indicating that SIRT1 is involved in the regulation of p53 function via deacetylation.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the sirtuin family of proteins, homologs to the yeast Sir2 protein. Members of the sirtuin family are characterized by a sirtuin core domain and grouped into four classes. The functions of human sirtuins have not yet been determined; however, yeast sirtuin proteins are known to regulate epigenetic gene silencing and suppress recombination of rDNA. Studies suggest that the human sirtuins may function as intracellular regulatory proteins with mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. The protein encoded by this gene is included in class I of the sirtuin family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
Uniprot Description
SIRT1: an NAD-dependent protein deacetylase that links transcriptional regulation directly to intracellular energetics and participates in the coordination of several separate cellular functions such as cell cycle, response to DNA damage, metobolism, apoptosis and autophagy. Deacetylates a broad range of transcription factors and coregulators, thereby regulating target gene expression positively and negatively. Serves as a sensor of the cytosolic ratio of NAD(+)/NADH which is altered by glucose deprivation and metabolic changes associated with caloric restriction. Essential in skeletal muscle cell differentiation and in response to low nutrients mediates the inhibitory effect on skeletal myoblast differentiation which also involves 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT). Component of the eNoSC (energy-dependent nucleolar silencing) complex, a complex that mediates silencing of rDNA in response to intracellular energy status and acts by recruiting histone-modifying enzymes. Elevation of NAD(+)/NADP(+) ratio activates SIRT1. Recruited to LRH1 target gene promoters by NR0B2/SHP thereby stimulating histone H3 and H4 deacetylation leading to transcriptional repression. Implicated in regulation of adipogenesis and fat mobilization in white adipocytes by repression of PPARG. Involved in liver and muscle metabolism. Is involved in autophagy, presumably by deacetylating ATG5, ATG7 and ATG8. Deacetylates AKT1 which leads to enhanced binding of AKT1 and PDK1 to PIP3 and promotes their activation. Widely expressed. Inhibited by nicotinamide. Belongs to the sirtuin family. Class I subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SIRT1 sirt1 (Catalog #AAA515680) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells using baculovirus and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 193-end. AAA Biotech's SIRT1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, SIRT Assay. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SIRT1 sirt1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SIRT1, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
