Description (eCommerce)
Sirtuin 6 (Sirt6) is a NAD-dependent protein deacetylase. Sirt6 displays deacetylase activity towards 'Lys-9' and 'Lys-56' of histone H3. It modulates acetylation of histone H3 in telomeric chromatin during the S-phase of the cell cycle. Sirt6 also deacetylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3 at NF-kappa-B target promoters and may down-regulate the expression of a subset of NF-kappa-B target genes. Sirt6 is important for the modulation of cellular senescence and apoptosis and the maintenance of telomeres and genomic stability [taken from the Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q8N6T7].
Description (Vector)
SIRT6 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 IV of the sirtuin family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

About Storage Conditions

All our viral products should be kept at -80°C. At this temperature, the virus will remain stable for 6-12 months (and in some cases, up to 2 years). Once thawed, the product can be stored at 4°C for 2-3 weeks without significant loss of biological activity. We recommend aliquoting your vectors into low protein binding tubes upon receipt. This helps avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, as well as prevent loss of virus. To maintain accurate titer, aliquot in at least 20ul per tube.
