SIRT5

Gene Information
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: NAD-dependent lysine demalonylase, desuccinylase and deglutarylase that specifically removes malonyl, succinyl and glutaryl groups on target proteins (PubMed:21908771, PubMed:22076378, PubMed:24703693). Activates CPS1 and contributes to the regulation of blood ammonia levels during prolonged fasting: acts by mediating desuccinylation and deglutarylation of CPS1, thereby increasing CPS1 activity in response to elevated NAD levels during fasting (PubMed:22076378, PubMed:24703693). Activates SOD1 by mediating its desuccinylation, leading to reduced reactive oxygen species (PubMed:24140062). Modulates ketogenesis through the desuccinylation and activation of HMGCS2 (By similarity). Has weak NAD-dependent protein deacetylase activity; however this activity may not be physiologically relevant in vivo. Can deacetylate cytochrome c (CYCS) and a number of other proteins in vitro such as UOX. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K2C6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18680753, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21908771, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22076378, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24140062, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24703693}.
