General annotation (Comments)

Function

NAD-dependent protein deacetylase. Required to restore the transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) at the exit from mitosis. Promotes the association of RNA polymerase I with the rDNA promoter region and coding region. Stimulates transcription activity of the RNA polymerase I complex. Ref.9 Ref.10

Catalytic activity

NAD+ + an acetylprotein = nicotinamide + O-acetyl-ADP-ribose + a protein.

Cofactor

Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit By similarity.

Subunit structure

Interacts with UBTF and the RNA polymerase I complex. Interacts with histone H2A and/or histone H2B. Ref.9 Ref.10

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. Nucleusnucleolus. Note: Located close to the nuclear membrane when in the cytoplasm. Associated with chromatin. Associated with rDNA promoter and transcribed region. Associated with nucleolar organizer regions during mitosis. Ref.5 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated during mitosis Probable. Ref.10

Miscellaneous

Overexpressed in human thyroid carcinoma cell lines and tissues, but not in adenomas.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the sirtuin family.

Contains 1 deacetylase sirtuin-type domain.

Caution

Was originally (Ref.5) termed SIR-T8/SIRT8. This was later (Ref.6) retracted. See also Ref.7.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q9NRC8-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q9NRC8-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     162-183: QHVVSQNCDGLHLRSGLPRTAI → RALGGWYTCQGPGRAPWCPVGN
     184-400: Missing.
Note: No experimental confirmation available.
