The following gene names and symbols are associated with antigen Sirtuin across different species:

phosphate cytidylyltransferase 2, ethanolamine (PCYT2), sirtuin (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) 1 (sirt1), sirtuin (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) 5 (S. cerevisiae) (SIRT5), sirtuin (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) 4 (S. cerevisiae) (SIRT4)

Other aliases include:

SIRT7, sir2l1, sirtuin, SIRT5, DKFZp468D0719, SIRT4

On the protein level the following designations are being used for antigen Sirtuin:

sirtuin 7 – sirtuin – sirtuin (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) 1 – NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-5

Sirtuin fulfills a number of functions:

NAD binding – hydrolase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, in linear amides – zinc ion binding

Sirtuin is relevant to the following processes:

chromatin silencing – protein amino acid deacetylation – regulation of transcription
