    摘要: This invention relates to methods of screening compounds that modulate cellular and organismal processes by modification of the activity of SIR2 and/or transcription factors, e.g., p53, particularly methods of screening for compounds that modify lifespan and/or metabolism of a cell or an organism by modulation of the activity of SIR2 and/or transcription factors, e.g., p53, and more particularly to methods of screening for compounds that modulate the activity of Sir2 and/or transcription factors, e.g., p53. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for screening a compound, by providing a test mixture comprising a transcription factor, Sir2, and a Sir2 cofactor with the compound, and evaluating an activity of a component of the test mixture in the presence of the compound. The invention further relates to therapeutic uses of said compounds. The invention further relates to a method of modifying the acetylation status of a transcription factor binding site on histone or DNA by raising local concentrations of Sir2.

    摘要: Methods of identifying agents which alter the NAD-dependent acetylation status and mono-ADP-ribosylation of nuclear proteins are disclosed. The methods further include identifying agents which alter the life span or aging of a cell or an organism by determining the level of NAD-dependent acetylation and/or ADP ribosylation of a nuclear protein. The invention also relates to a mammalian Sir2 protein which acetylates or deacetylates nuclear proteins in a NAD-dependent manner and has mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Host cells producing the Sir2 protein and antibodies to the Sir2 protein are also provided.

    摘要: It has been discovered that Sirt4 possesses an ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Sirt4 is localized to mitochondria, where it binds to and regulates the activity of proteins such as glutamate dehydrogenase. The ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of Sirt4 is important for the regulation of biological functions such as insulin secretion. Methods of screening for compounds that modulate the expression or activity of Sirt4 are provided. Also provided are methods of modulating insulin secretion, treating metabolic disorders, and treating neurodegenerative disorders by modulating the expression or activity of Sirt4.

    摘要: The present invention provides new and advantageous methods, compositions, cell constructs and animal models related to inhibiting the senescence of vertebrate cells and vertebrate organisms based on the use of SIRT1 polynucleotides and polypeptides, as well as mutant SIRT1 polynucleotides and polypeptides. The invention provides polynucleotides that encode variants and fragments of SIRT1 polypeptides, and also provides variant SIRT1 polypeptides and fragments thereof. Additionally the invention provides a method of inhibiting or delaying the expression in a vertebrate cell of a protein having biological activity associated with loss of population doubling in the cell. The invention further provides a method of treating a pathology, a disease or a medical condition in a subject, wherein the pathology responds to an SIRT1 polypeptide. The invention also provides a vertebrate cell that incorporates a heterologous nucleic acid encoding a variant of SIRT1, or a fragment thereof, as well as a transgenic mammal a majority of whose cells harbor a transgene including a nucleic acid sequence encoding an SIRT1 polypeptide. The invention also provides an antibody that binds immunospecifically to a variant SIRT1 polypeptide or a fragment thereof, and a method of determining whether the amount of an SIRT1 polypeptide in a sample differs from the amount of the SIRT1 polypeptide in a reference. The invention further provides a method of contributing to the diagnosis or prognosis of, or to developing a therapeutic strategy for, a disease or pathology in a subject, wherein the disease or pathology responds to treatment with an SIRT1 polypeptide and wherein the amount of SIRT1 polypeptide in the pathology is known to differ from the amount of the SIRT1 polypeptide in a nonpathological state.
