Target Background

Function
SIRT1, a NAD-dependent protein deacetylase, plays a pivotal role in linking transcriptional regulation to intracellular energy levels. It participates in coordinating various cellular functions, including cell cycle regulation, response to DNA damage, metabolic processes, apoptosis, and autophagy. SIRT1 modulates chromatin function by deacetylating histones, promoting alterations in histone and DNA methylation, and ultimately leading to transcriptional repression. It deacetylates a diverse range of transcription factors and coregulators, thereby regulating target gene expression in both positive and negative manners. SIRT1 acts as a sensor for the cytosolic NAD+/NADH ratio, which is influenced by glucose deprivation and metabolic changes associated with caloric restriction.

SIRT1 is essential for skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Under conditions of low nutrient availability, SIRT1 mediates the inhibitory effect on skeletal myoblast differentiation, a process that also involves the participation of 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT). SIRT1 is a component of the eNoSC (energy-dependent nucleolar silencing) complex, which mediates the silencing of rDNA in response to intracellular energy status by recruiting histone-modifying enzymes. The eNoSC complex senses the energy status of the cell: upon glucose starvation, the elevation of the NAD+/NADP+ ratio activates SIRT1, leading to histone H3 deacetylation, followed by dimethylation of H3 at Lys-9 (H3K9me2) by SUV39H1 and the formation of silent chromatin in the rDNA locus. SIRT1 deacetylates Lys-266 of SUV39H1, leading to its activation.

SIRT1 inhibits skeletal muscle differentiation by deacetylating PCAF and MYOD1. It deacetylates H2A and Lys-26 of H1-4. In vitro, SIRT1 deacetylates Lys-16 of histone H4. SIRT1 is involved in NR0B2/SHP corepression function through chromatin remodeling. It is recruited to LRH1 target gene promoters by NR0B2/SHP, stimulating histone H3 and H4 deacetylation, which leads to transcriptional repression. SIRT1 is proposed to contribute to genomic integrity through the positive regulation of telomere length; however, its localization to pericentromeric heterochromatin has been reported with conflicting results. SIRT1 is proposed to play a role in constitutive heterochromatin (CH) formation and/or maintenance by regulating the available pool of nuclear SUV39H1. Under oxidative/metabolic stress, SIRT1 reduces SUV39H1 degradation by inhibiting SUV39H1 polyubiquitination by MDM2. This increase in SUV39H1 levels enhances SUV39H1 turnover in CH, which, in turn, accelerates heterochromatin renewal. This renewal correlates with greater genomic integrity during stress response.

SIRT1 deacetylates Lys-382 of p53/TP53, impairing its ability to induce transcription-dependent proapoptotic programs and modulate cell senescence. It deacetylates TAF1B, repressing rDNA transcription by RNA polymerase I. SIRT1 deacetylates MYC, promoting the association of MYC with MAX and decreasing MYC stability, leading to compromised transformational capability. SIRT1 deacetylates FOXO3 in response to oxidative stress, increasing its ability to induce cell cycle arrest and resistance to oxidative stress while inhibiting FOXO3-mediated induction of apoptotic transcriptional activity. This deacetylation also leads to FOXO3 ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. SIRT1 appears to have a similar effect on MLLT7/FOXO4 in regulating transcriptional activity and apoptosis. SIRT1 deacetylates DNMT1, impairing its methyltransferase-independent transcription repressor activity, modulating DNMT1 cell cycle regulatory function, and DNMT1-mediated gene silencing. SIRT1 deacetylates RELA/NF-kappa-B p65, inhibiting its transactivating potential and augmenting apoptosis in response to TNF-alpha. It deacetylates HIF1A, KAT5/TIP60, RB1, and HIC1.

SIRT1 deacetylates FOXO1, leading to its nuclear retention and enhancement of its transcriptional activity, resulting in increased gluconeogenesis in the liver. SIRT1 inhibits E2F1 transcriptional activity and apoptotic function, possibly by deacetylation. SIRT1 is involved in HES1- and HEY2-mediated transcriptional repression. In cooperation with MYCN, SIRT1 seems to be involved in transcriptional repression of DUSP6/MAPK3, leading to MYCN stabilization by phosphorylation at Ser-62. SIRT1 deacetylates MEF2D. It is required for antagonist-mediated transcription suppression of AR-dependent genes, which may be linked to local deacetylation of histone H3. SIRT1 represses HNF1A-mediated transcription. It is required for the repression of ESRRG by CREBZF. SIRT1 deacetylates NR1H3 and NR1H2. Deacetylation of NR1H3 at Lys-434 positively regulates transcription of NR1H3:RXR target genes, promotes NR1H3 proteasomal degradation, and results in cholesterol efflux. A promoter clearing mechanism after each round of transcription has been proposed.

SIRT1 is involved in lipid metabolism. It is implicated in the regulation of adipogenesis and fat mobilization in white adipocytes by repressing PPARG, which likely involves association with NCOR1 and SMRT/NCOR2. SIRT1 deacetylates p300/EP300 and PRMT1. It deacetylates ACSS2, leading to its activation, and HMGCS1 deacetylation. SIRT1 is involved in liver and muscle metabolism. Through deacetylation and activation of PPARGC1A, SIRT1 is required to activate fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle under low-glucose conditions and is involved in glucose homeostasis. SIRT1 is involved in the regulation of PPARA and fatty acid beta-oxidation in the liver. It is involved in the positive regulation of insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells in response to glucose; the function seems to imply transcriptional repression of UCP2. SIRT1 is proposed to deacetylate IRS2, facilitating its insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation. SIRT1 deacetylates SREBF1 isoform SREBP-1C, decreasing its stability and transactivation in lipogenic gene expression.

SIRT1 is involved in the DNA damage response by repressing genes involved in DNA repair, such as XPC and TP73, deacetylating XRCC6/Ku70, and facilitating the recruitment of additional factors to sites of damaged DNA. For example, SIRT1-deacetylated NBN can recruit ATM to initiate DNA repair, and SIRT1-deacetylated XPA interacts with RPA2. SIRT1 is also involved in DNA repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination and specifically single-strand annealing independently of XRCC6/Ku70 and NBN. Transcriptional suppression of XPC likely involves an E2F4:RBL2 suppressor complex and protein kinase B (AKT) signaling. Transcriptional suppression of TP73 likely involves E2F4 and PCAF. SIRT1 deacetylates WRN, regulating its helicase and exonuclease activities and regulating WRN nuclear translocation in response to DNA damage. SIRT1 deacetylates APEX1 at Lys-6 and Lys-7, stimulating cellular AP endonuclease activity by promoting the association of APEX1 with XRCC1. SIRT1 increases p53/TP53-mediated transcription-independent apoptosis by blocking nuclear translocation of cytoplasmic p53/TP53 and likely redirecting it to mitochondria. SIRT1 deacetylates XRCC6/Ku70 at Lys-539 and Lys-542, causing it to sequester BAX away from mitochondria, thereby inhibiting stress-induced apoptosis.

SIRT1 is involved in autophagy, presumably by deacetylating ATG5, ATG7, and MAP1LC3B/ATG8. SIRT1 deacetylates AKT1, leading to enhanced binding of AKT1 and PDK1 to PIP3 and promoting their activation. SIRT1 is proposed to play a role in the regulation of STK11/LBK1-dependent AMPK signaling pathways implicated in cellular senescence, which seems to involve the regulation of the acetylation status of STK11/LBK1. SIRT1 can deacetylate STK11/LBK1, increasing its activity, cytoplasmic localization, and association with STRAD; however, the relevance of such activity in normal cells is unclear. In endothelial cells, SIRT1 inhibits STK11/LBK1 activity and promotes its degradation. SIRT1 deacetylates SMAD7 at Lys-64 and Lys-70, promoting its degradation. SIRT1 deacetylates CIITA, augmenting its MHC class II transactivation and contributing to its stability. SIRT1 deacetylates MECOM/EVI1. SIRT1 deacetylates PML at Lys-487, and this deacetylation promotes PML control of PER2 nuclear localization.

During the neurogenic transition, SIRT1 represses selective NOTCH1-target genes through histone deacetylation in a BCL6-dependent manner, leading to neuronal differentiation. SIRT1 regulates the circadian expression of several core clock genes, including ARNTL/BMAL1, RORC, PER2, and CRY1, and plays a critical role in maintaining controlled rhythmicity in histone acetylation, thereby contributing to circadian chromatin remodeling. SIRT1 deacetylates ARNTL/BMAL1 and histones at the circadian gene promoters to facilitate repression by inhibitory components of the circadian oscillator. SIRT1 deacetylates PER2, facilitating its ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. SIRT1 protects cardiomyocytes against palmitate-induced apoptosis. SIRT1 deacetylates XBP1 isoform 2; deacetylation decreases protein stability of XBP1 isoform 2 and inhibits its transcriptional activity. SIRT1 deacetylates PCK1 and directs its activity towards phosphoenolpyruvate production, promoting gluconeogenesis. SIRT1 is involved in the CCAR2-mediated regulation of PCK1 and NR1D1. SIRT1 deacetylates CTNB1 at Lys-49. In POMC (pro-opiomelanocortin) neurons, SIRT1 is required for leptin-induced activation of PI3K signaling.

In addition to protein deacetylase activity, SIRT1 also acts as a protein-lysine deacylase. It acts as a protein depropionylase by mediating depropionylation of Osterix (SP7). SIRT1 deacetylates SOX9, promoting SOX9 nuclear localization and transactivation activity. SIRT1 is involved in the regulation of centrosome duplication. It deacetylates CENATAC in G1 phase, allowing for SASS6 accumulation on the centrosome and subsequent procentriole assembly.

[Isoform 2]: SIRT1 isoform 2 deacetylates Lys-382 of p53/TP53, although with lower activity than isoform 1. The two isoforms exert an additive effect. Isoform 2 regulates p53/TP53 expression and cellular stress response. It is, in turn, repressed by p53/TP53, presenting a SIRT1 isoform-dependent auto-regulatory loop.

(Microbial infection) In the case of HIV-1 infection, SIRT1 interacts with and deacetylates the viral Tat protein. The viral Tat protein inhibits SIRT1 deacetylation activity towards RELA/NF-kappa-B p65, thereby potentiating its transcriptional activity. SIRT1 is proposed to contribute to T-cell hyperactivation during infection.

[SirtT1 75 kDa fragment]: The catalytically inactive 75SirT1 may be involved in regulating apoptosis. It may be involved in protecting chondrocytes from apoptotic death by associating with cytochrome C and interfering with apoptosome assembly.

Q&A

What is SIRT1 and why is it significant in research applications?

SIRT1 (also known as SIR2L1, NAD-dependent protein deacetylase sirtuin-1, hSIRT1) is a member of the sirtuin family of proteins, homologous to the yeast Sir2 protein . It functions primarily as an intracellular regulatory protein with mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity . SIRT1 is categorized in class I of the sirtuin family and is characterized by a sirtuin core domain . The significance of SIRT1 in research stems from its role in epigenetic gene silencing, DNA recombination suppression, and its involvement in critical cellular pathways including metabolism, inflammation, and aging. Studies in yeast have shown that sirtuin proteins regulate epigenetic gene silencing and suppress recombination of rDNA, suggesting similar important regulatory functions in humans .

What are the primary applications of SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated?

SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated is specifically designed for multiple research applications including:

  • Western Blotting (WB): Dilution ranges from 1:300-5000 depending on the specific antibody

  • Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA): Typically used at dilutions of 1:500-1000

  • Immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded tissues (IHC-P): Recommended dilutions range from 1:200-400

  • Immunohistochemistry on frozen sections (IHC-F): Effective at dilutions of 1:100-500

The HRP conjugation provides direct enzymatic detection capabilities, eliminating the need for secondary antibodies in many applications, which can reduce background and increase specific signal detection .

How should subcellular localization be considered when using SIRT1 antibodies?

Understanding SIRT1's subcellular localization is critical for accurate interpretation of experimental results. SIRT1 is localized in both the cytoplasm and nucleus . Immunocytochemistry (ICC) studies have confirmed SIRT1 labeling specifically in the cell nucleus throughout rat and mouse brain parenchyma . When analyzing SIRT1 expression, researchers should consider potential subcellular distribution differences across different cell types and physiological conditions. For optimal detection of nuclear SIRT1, proper sample preparation techniques including appropriate fixation methods and permeabilization are essential. Negative controls (replacing primary SIRT1 antibody with serum) should be included to verify specificity, as proper ICC methods should show an absence of nuclear labeling when the primary antibody is omitted .

How can the specificity of SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated be validated?

Validating antibody specificity is crucial for reliable experimental outcomes. Several approaches are recommended:

  • Knockout validation: Western blot analysis comparing parental cell lines with SIRT1 knockout cell lines is a gold standard approach. For example, HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma parental cell line shows a specific band at approximately 120-130 kDa that is absent in SIRT1 knockout HeLa cell lines .

  • Loading controls: Include appropriate loading controls such as GAPDH to ensure equal protein loading across samples .

  • Multiple antibody validation: Confirm results using different antibodies targeting distinct epitopes of SIRT1. Available antibodies include those targeting different regions like amino acids 101-200/747 and 552-676 of human SIRT1.

  • Cross-reactivity testing: Test the antibody against samples from different species to verify specificity, especially when working with non-human models. Many SIRT1 antibodies show reactivity to human, mouse, and rat SIRT1, with predicted reactivity to additional species like cow, horse, chicken, and rabbit .

What are optimal sample preparation methods for Western blotting with SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated?

For successful Western blot detection of SIRT1 using HRP-conjugated antibodies:

  • Lysate preparation: Cell lysates from appropriate cell lines such as A172 (human glioblastoma), A549 (human lung carcinoma), or HeLa (human cervical epithelial carcinoma) serve as positive controls .

  • Reducing conditions: SIRT1 Western blots should be conducted under reducing conditions using appropriate buffer systems. Immunoblot Buffer Group 1 has been specifically noted to work well with SIRT1 antibodies .

  • Transfer conditions: Use PVDF membrane for optimal protein binding and detection sensitivity .

  • Antibody dilution: Dilute SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated appropriately based on manufacturer recommendations, typically 1:300-5000 for Western blotting applications .

  • Expected molecular weight: Look for a specific band at approximately 120-130 kDa, which is the expected molecular weight for SIRT1 . The predicted protein size is 81.5 kDa, but post-translational modifications result in the higher observed molecular weight .

What are common issues when using SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated in Western blots and how can they be resolved?

When working with SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated, researchers may encounter several challenges:

  • Non-specific bands: If detecting multiple bands, optimize antibody dilution (try higher dilutions like 1:2000-5000) , improve blocking conditions, and ensure appropriate washing steps. Verify the knockout control shows no band at the expected molecular weight while maintaining other non-specific bands, indicating those are truly non-specific .

  • Weak signal: For enhanced signal detection, reduce the antibody dilution within the recommended range (1:300-1000) , extend incubation time, or utilize signal enhancement systems compatible with HRP detection.

  • High background: Increase washing duration and frequency, optimize blocking conditions, and ensure freshly prepared buffers. For HRP-conjugated antibodies specifically, blocking with BSA rather than milk may reduce background due to potential interaction of milk proteins with the HRP enzyme.

  • Incorrect molecular weight: SIRT1 should appear at approximately 120-130 kDa despite a predicted size of 81.5 kDa . This discrepancy is due to post-translational modifications and structural properties affecting protein migration in SDS-PAGE.

How can immunohistochemistry protocols be optimized for SIRT1 detection with HRP-conjugated antibodies?

For optimal immunohistochemical detection of SIRT1:

  • Antigen retrieval: Implement appropriate antigen retrieval methods before antibody incubation to expose epitopes that may be masked during fixation. Heat-induced epitope retrieval has shown good results with SIRT1 antibodies .

  • Incubation conditions: Extended incubation periods (up to 48 hours at 4°C) may improve sensitivity and specificity of SIRT1 detection in tissue sections .

  • Dilution optimization: For SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated in IHC-P applications, start with dilutions of 1:200-400 and adjust based on signal intensity and background levels.

  • Counterstaining: Consider using Neutral Red for counterstaining to help identify relevant anatomical structures without interfering with the HRP signal .

  • Controls: Include positive controls (tissues known to express SIRT1) and negative controls (omitting primary antibody or using SIRT1 knockout tissues when available) to validate staining specificity .

How can SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated be used in co-localization studies with other proteins?

For multi-protein co-localization studies involving SIRT1:

  • Sequential immunostaining: For double-labeling experiments, develop SIRT1 staining first, followed by rinses in appropriate buffer (e.g., KPBS) before proceeding with the second protein detection. This sequential approach has been successfully applied for co-localization of SIRT1 with parvalbumin (PV) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) .

  • Compatible detection systems: When using SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated, pair it with fluorescently-labeled antibodies or alternative enzyme systems (such as alkaline phosphatase) for the second protein to avoid signal overlap.

  • Controls: Include single-stained controls to verify the specificity of each antibody and rule out cross-reactivity or signal bleed-through.

  • Imaging considerations: Use appropriate filters and sequential scanning when performing microscopy to clearly distinguish between different signals and accurately assess co-localization.

What considerations should be made when using SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated across different species?

When working with SIRT1 across species:

  • Confirmed reactivity: Many SIRT1 antibodies show verified reactivity to human, mouse, and rat samples . Some antibodies also have predicted reactivity to cow, horse, chicken, and rabbit SIRT1 .

  • Epitope conservation: The epitope recognized by the antibody should be conserved across the species of interest. For example, antibodies targeting amino acids 101-200/747 or 552-676 of human SIRT1 may have different cross-reactivity profiles based on sequence conservation.

  • Validation in each species: Even when cross-reactivity is predicted, empirical validation in each species is essential. Western blot analysis showing the correct molecular weight band and absence of this band in knockout controls provides strong validation .

  • Species-specific optimization: Dilution ratios and incubation conditions may need adjustment when transitioning between species due to potential differences in antibody affinity or target protein abundance.

What are the advantages of using SIRT1 Antibody, HRP conjugated compared to unconjugated primary antibodies?

HRP-conjugated SIRT1 antibodies offer several advantages over unconjugated versions:

  • Streamlined protocols: Direct detection eliminates the need for secondary antibody incubation, reducing experimental time and potential sources of variability .

  • Reduced cross-reactivity: By eliminating secondary antibodies, potential cross-reactivity issues, particularly in multi-species or multi-protein detection systems, are minimized.

  • Enhanced sensitivity: Direct enzymatic amplification at the primary antibody binding site can improve signal-to-noise ratio in certain applications .

  • Application versatility: HRP-conjugated antibodies are particularly valuable in ELISA and certain IHC applications where direct detection systems are preferred .

  • Storage considerations: HRP-conjugated antibodies typically require storage at -20°C with 50% glycerol to maintain enzymatic activity . Aliquoting into multiple vials is recommended to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles that may compromise antibody performance .
