Summary
Enables several functions, including NAD(P)+-protein-arginine ADP-ribosyltransferase activity; NAD-dependent histone deacetylase activity (H3-K9 specific); and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular protein modification process; negative regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; gonad; musculature; and retina. Used to study progeria. Orthologous to human SIRT6 (sirtuin 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) differs in the UTRs and 5' coding region and initiates translation at a downstream start codon, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (2) has a shorter N-terminus compared to isoform 1. Variants 2 and 4 both encode the same isoform (2).
