Anti-SIRT5/Sirtuin 5 Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody

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. .

Mitochondrion matrix. Mitochondrion intermembrane space. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Nucleus. Mainly mitochondrial. Also present extramitochondrially: a fraction is present in the cytosol and very small amounts are also detected in the nucleus.
