Summary: Enables NAD-dependent histone deacetylase activity (H3-K14 specific) and NAD-dependent histone deacetylase activity (H4-K16 specific). Contributes to nucleosome binding activity. Involved in several processes, including establishment of protein-containing complex localization to telomere; negative regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and regulation of DNA stability. Located in chromosome, telomeric region; heterochromatin; and nucleolus. Part of RENT complex. Used to study Alzheimer's disease; Parkinson's disease; diabetes mellitus; and prostate cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Huntington's disease. Orthologous to human SIRT1 (sirtuin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

It was believed the only role for Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sir2 in mating-type switching was silencing HML and HMR. Study shows that Sir2 also regulates expression of a small gene (RDT1) in the cis-acting DNA element called the recombination enhancer that is activated during mating-type switching.
Title: A Sir2-regulated locus control region in the recombination enhancer of Saccharomyces cerevisiae specifies chromosome III structure.

NP_010242.1

EC 2.3.1.286

Conserved NAD+ dependent histone deacetylase of the Sirtuin family; deacetylation targets are primarily nuclear proteins; required for telomere hypercluster formation in quiescent yeast cells; involved in regulation of lifespan; plays roles in silencing at HML, HMR, telomeres, and rDNA; negatively regulates initiation of DNA replication, suppressing early firing of multicopy rDNA origins; functions as regulator of autophagy like mammalian homolog SIRT1, and also of mitophagy
