General description

Sirtuin 6 (Sirt6) is a nuclear and chromatin-associated protein that belongs to the mammalian Sir2 gene family. It is broadly expressed with the highest levels in muscle, brain and heart.

Specificity

Anti-Sirt6 (N-terminal) recognizes human and mouse Sirt6. The detection of the Sirt6 band by immunoblotting is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 19-33 of human Sirt6 via a C-terminal cysteine residue. The sequence is identical in mouse and differs by one amino acid in rat.

Application

Anti-Sirt6 (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sirtuin 6 (Sirt6) plays a key role in DNA repair and maintenance of genomic stability in cells. Sirt6 is enzymatically inactive as a NAD+ -dependent protein deacetylase but displays auto-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Loss of Sirt6 leads to the development of an acute degenerative aging-like phenotype.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered, saline pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
