Sirtuin 2, encoded by the SIRT2 gene, is also known as SIR2 (silent information regulator 2)-like protein 2. It is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent histone/protein deacetylase (1, 2). The SIR2 family of enzymes is classified as class III histone deacetylases (HDACs) and has been implicated in many cellular processes that include histone deacetylation, gene silencing, chromosomal stability, and aging (3, 4). Unlike class I and class II HDACs, the enzymatic activity of class III HDACs is NAD dependent and insensitive to HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A (5).

- Dilute rhSIRT2 to 0.04 µg/µL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 500 µM in Assay Buffer containing 2 mM beta -NAD.
- Mix 25 µLof 0.04 µg/µL rhSIRT2 and 25 µL of Substrate in plate. Add 25 µL of 0.04 µg/µL rhSIRT2 alone for the control.
- Cover with parafilm or a plate sealer and incubate at 37 °C for 30 minutes.
- Add 50 µL of Stop Solution to all wells. Mix. For control well(s), add 25 µL of Substrate after addition of Stop Solution.
- Seal tightly and incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 380 nm and 460 nm (top read), respectively in endpoint mode.
- Calculate specific activity:
|
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Fluorescence* (RFU) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU) |
| Incubation time (min) x amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Control
**Derived using calibration standard 7-amino, 4-Methyl Coumarin (AMC) (Sigma, Catalog # A-9891).
Per Well:
