WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

The Silent Information Regulator (SIR2) family of genes are highly conserved from prokaryotes to eukaryotes and have important functions in the regulation of metabolism, growth and differentiation, inflammation, cellular survival, as well as in senescence and lifespan extension.Sirtuins, including SIRT1-7, are human homologs of yeast Sir2p.Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent histone/protein deacetylases (HDAC) which regulate cellular metabolism, e.g.energy metabolism, and thereby are associated with aging and several age-related diseases.SIRT5 localizes to mitochondria, deacetylates carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1, and is involved in the regulation of the urea cycle. Synonyms: Sirtuin 5, NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-5, SIR2L5
