2.3.1.B41 D63H naturally occuring mutation in SIRT6, the homozygous inactivating mutation of histone deacetylase SIRT6 results in severe congenital anomalies and perinatal lethality in four affected fetuses, it causes human perinatal lethality, missense mutation SIRT6 p.D63H in affected fetal amniocytes. SIRT6 D63H mutant mESCs fail to form EBs and retain pluripotent gene expression. The amino acid change at Asp63 to a histidine results in virtually complete loss of H3K9 deacetylase and demyristoylase functions. Asp63 is located in the NAD+-binding pocket, forming hydrogen bonds with neighboring amino acids and thus providing structure to the NAD+-binding loop 756879 2.3.1.B41 D63H naturally occuring mutation in SIRT6, the homozygous inactivating mutation of histone deacetylase SIRT6.

SIRT6 overexpression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells reduces E-cadherin levels 757530 2.3.1.B41 additional information generation of brS6KO mice, phenotype, overview. Brains of brS6KO mice are significantly smaller, but otherwise structurally normal. brS6KO mice exhibit increased signs of DNA damage, marked by increased levels of ATM and H2AX phosphorylation, increased H3K56ac, and reduced SNF2H recruitment to chromatin. A significant increase in apoptotic cells in the cortex is observed, as determined by TUNEL staining in young mice (3-4 month old). SIRT6-deficient brains have increased signs of DNA damage and cell death. Behavioral defects of brS6KO mice, overview. SIRT6 deletion markedly decreases non-associative (OF) and associative (CFC) learning. SIRT6KO cells are more sensitive to apoptosis, prevented by GSK3 or ATM inhibition 756392 2.3.1.B41 additional information generation of endothelium-specific SIRT6 knockout mice (Tie2-Cre/SIRT6flox/flox, defined as ecSIRT6-/-). Analysis of the effect of endothelium-specific SIRT6 depletion on hyperlipidemic mice 756672 2.3.1.B41 additional information generation of muscle-specific knockout mice SIRT6M -/- and effects of different diets, phenotypes, detailed overview -, 755766 2.3.1.B41 additional information generation of SIRT6 knockout human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) by targeted gene editing. For generation of SIRT6-deficient human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), the exon 1 of SIRT6 gene is removed in hESCs by a transcription activator-like effector nuclease. SIRT6-deficient hMSCs exhibit accelerated functional decay, a feature distinct from typical premature cellular senescence. Rather than compromised chromosomal stability, SIRT6-null hMSCs are predominately characterized by dysregulated redox metabolism and increased sensitivity to the oxidative stress. SIRT6 forms a protein complex with both nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) and RNA polymerase II, which is required for the transactivation of NRF2-regulated antioxidant genes, including heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1).
