Biological Activity

Silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) acts as a nicotine adenine dinucleotide (NAD) dependent deacetylase and is implicated in various biological processes such as regulation of transcriptional repression, recombination, the cell-division cycle, microtubule organization, and cellular responses to DNA-damaging agents. In addition, sirtuins also regulate the process involved in aging. Sir2 plays a vital role in mammalian metabolic homeostasis and is considered to be a potent therapeutic target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Sir2 has a crucial role in reduction of microglial activation and brain inflammation. Therefore, loss of Sir2 activity increases the risk of susceptibility to neurodegenerative diseases.
