Sirtuin 1, also known as NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SIRT1 gene. [5] [6] [7]SIRT1 stands for sirtuin (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) 1 (S. cerevisiae), referring to the fact that its sirtuin homolog (biological equivalent across species) in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is Sir2.
SIRT1 protein promotes homologous recombination in human cells and is involved in recombinational repair of DNA breaks. [ 29 ] SIRT6 is a chromatin -associated protein and in mammalian cells is required for base excision repair of DNA damage . [ 30 ]
