Recombinant Human Sirtuin 2, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: SIRT2-4876H
• Product Overview: Full-length recombinant human SIRT2 was expressed in E. coli cells using an N-terminal GST tag.

Specification

• Cat. No.: SIRT2-4876H
• Description: SIRT2 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 SIRT2 being a member of class I. Inhibition of SIRT2 can lead to neuroprotection in cellular and invertebrate models of Huntington" s disease. Huntington"s disease is characterized by increased sterol synthesis in neuronal cells and this process is reversed by SIRT2 inhibition.

Q&As

How does SIRT2 participate in the regulation of cellular stress responses?

SIRT2 is involved in stress response pathways, deacetylating and modulating the activity of stress-responsive proteins, contributing to cellular adaptation to various stress conditions.

How does SIRT2 contribute to the regulation of cellular metabolism?

SIRT2 influences cellular metabolism by deacetylating enzymes involved in glycolysis, fatty acid metabolism, and mitochondrial function, impacting overall energy homeostasis.

Explain the molecular mechanisms underlying SIRT2-mediated deacetylation of target proteins.

SIRT2 uses NAD+ as a cofactor to remove acetyl groups from lysine residues, a process that links cellular metabolic state to protein acetylation and deacetylation.

Discuss the role of SIRT2 in the regulation of cell cycle progression.

SIRT2 influences cell cycle progression by deacetylating key regulators, such as cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and checkpoint proteins, impacting cell cycle checkpoints and progression.

Discuss the role of SIRT2 in neurodegenerative diseases and its potential as a therapeutic target.

SIRT2 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, and modulating its activity is explored as a potential therapeutic strategy for conditions such as Parkinson's disease.
