Human Gene SIRT2 (ENST00000249396.12) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), transcript variant 1, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_012237) RefSeq Summary (NM_012237): This gene encodes a member of the sirtuin family of proteins, homologs to the yeast Sir2 protein. Members of the sirtuin family are characterized by a sirtuin core domain and grouped into four classes. The functions of human sirtuins have not yet been determined; however, yeast sirtuin proteins are known to regulate epigenetic gene silencing and suppress recombination of rDNA. Studies suggest that the human sirtuins may function as intracellular regulatory proteins with mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. The protein encoded by this gene is included in class I of the sirtuin family. Several transcript variants are resulted from alternative splicing of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010].

ID:SIR2_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=NAD-dependent protein deacetylase sirtuin-2; EC=3.5.1.-; AltName: Full=Regulatory protein SIR2 homolog 2; AltName: Full=SIR2-like protein 2; FUNCTION: NAD-dependent protein deacetylase, which deacetylates internal lysines on histone and non-histone proteins. Deacetylates 'Lys-40' of alpha-tubulin. Involved in the control of mitotic exit in the cell cycle, probably via its role in the regulation of cytoskeleton. Deacetylates PCK1, opposing proteasomal degradation. Deacetylates 'Lys-310' of RELA. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: NAD(+) + an acetylprotein = nicotinamide + O- acetyl-ADP-ribose + a protein. COFACTOR: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit. ENZYME REGULATION: Inhibited by Sirtinol, A3 and M15 small molecules. Inhibited by nicotinamide. SUBUNIT: Interacts with HDAC6, suggesting that these proteins belong to a large complex that deacetylate the cytoskeleton. INTERACTION: Q12834:CDC20; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-5240785, EBI-367462; Q9UM11:FZR1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-5240785, EBI-724997; Q92831:KAT2B; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-477232, EBI-477430; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Colocalizes with microtubules. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed. Highly expressed in heart, brain and skeletal muscle, while it is weakly expressed in placenta and lung. Down-regulated in many gliomas suggesting that it may act as a tumor suppressor gene in human gliomas possibly through the regulation of microtubule network. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Peaks during mitosis. After mitosis, it is probably degraded by the 26S proteasome. PTM: Phosphorylated at the G2/M transition of the cell cycle. MISCELLANEOUS: Has some ability to deacetylate histones in vitro, but seeing its subcellular location, this is unlikely in vivo. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the sirtuin family. Class I subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 deacetylase sirtuin-type domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAD45971.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=AAF67015.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=Several;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
