The sirtuins are NAD+-dependent lysine deacylases, comprising seven isoforms (SIRT1–7) in humans, which are
involved in the regulation of a plethora of biology, including gene expression and metabolism. The sirtuins share
a common hydrolytic mechanism but display preferences for different ε-N-acyllysine substrates. SIRT7
deacetylates targets in nuclei and nucleoli but remains one of the lesser studied of the seven isoforms; in part,
because of a...
