Sirtuins and Insulin Resistance [PDF]
The mammalian Sirtuins (SIRT1-7) are an evolutionarily conserved family of NAD+-dependent deacylase and mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase. Sirtuins display distinct subcellular localizations and functions and are involved in cell survival, senescence ...

Sirtuins, Bioageing, and Cancer [PDF]
The Sirtuins are a family of orthologues of yeast Sir2 found in a wide range of organisms from bacteria to man. They display a high degree of conservation between species, in both sequence and function, indicative of their key biochemical roles. Sirtuins

Mitochondrial Sirtuins in Reproduction [PDF]
Mitochondria act as hubs of numerous metabolic pathways. Mitochondrial dysfunctions contribute to altering the redox balance and predispose to aging and metabolic alterations. The sirtuin family is composed of seven members and three of them, SIRT3-5, are housed in mitochondria.

Virtual Screening in the Identification of Sirtuins’ Activity Modulators
Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent deac(et)ylases with different subcellular localization. The sirtuins’ family is composed of seven members, named SIRT-1 to SIRT-7. Their substrates include histones and also an increasing number of different proteins. Sirtuins

Sirtuin 1 and Sirtuin 3 in Granulosa Cell Tumors [PDF]
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are NAD+-dependent deacetylases that regulate proliferation and cell death. In the human ovary, granulosa cells express sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), which has also been detected in human tumors derived from granulosa cells, i.e., granulosa cell tumors (GCTs), and in KGN cells.

Sirtuins are NAD-dependent deacetylases that are highly conserved from bacteria to human and SIR2 was originally shown to extend lifespan in budding yeast ([Imai et al., 2000][1]; [Kaeberlein et al., 1999][2]).

Sirtuins and cognition: implications for learning and memory in neurological disorders
Sirtuins are an evolutionarily conserved family of regulatory proteins that function in an NAD+ -dependent manner. The mammalian family of sirtuins is composed of seven histone deacetylase and ADP-ribosyltransferase proteins (SIRT1-SIRT7) that are found ...

Sirtuins as a potential molecular target of cosmetic ingredients [PDF]
Sirtuins are a group of enzymes belonging to histone deacetylases. However, they can also catalyze other deacylation reactions (including, for example, demallonylation, desuccinylation or deglutarylation), as well as ADP-ribosylation reactions.

Alterations of sirtuins in mitochondrial cytochrome c-oxidase deficiency. [PDF]
Sirtuins are NAD+ dependent deacetylases, which regulate mitochondrial energy metabolism as well as cellular response to stress. The NAD/NADH-system plays a crucial role in oxidative phosphorylation linking sirtuins and the mitochondrial respiratory ...
