NAD-dependent protein deacylase sirtuin-6
Gene: SIRT6
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 36 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Type of variant: help US The variants are classified into three categories: LP/P, LB/B and US.
  • LP/P: likely pathogenic or pathogenic.
  • LB/B: likely benign or benign.
  • US: uncertain significance

Residue change: help From Glutamate (E) to Valine (V) at position 36 (E36V, p.Glu36Val). Indicates the amino acid change of the variant. The one-letter and three-letter codes for amino acids used in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot are those adopted by the commission on Biochemical Nomenclature of the IUPAC-IUB.
Physico-chemical properties: help Change from medium size and acidic (E) to medium size and hydrophobic (V) The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help -2 The score within a Blosum matrix for the corresponding wild-type to variant amino acid change. The log-odds score measures the logarithm for the ratio of the likelihood of two amino acids appearing by chance. The Blosum62 substitution matrix is used. This substitution matrix contains scores for all possible exchanges of one amino acid with another:
  • Lowest score: -4 (low probability of substitution).
  • Highest score: 11 (high probability of substitution).

Variant description: help Found in kidney cancer; somatic mutation; reduced histone deacetylase activity; does not affect the protein-lysine demyristoylase activity. Any additional useful information about the variant.


Sequence information Variant position: help 36 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 355 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help GKCGLPEIFDPPEELERKVW E LARLVWQSSSVVFHTGAGIS The residue change on the sequence. Unless the variant is located at the beginning or at the end of the protein sequence, both residues upstream (20) and downstream (20) of the variant will be shown.
Residue conservation: help The multiple alignment of the region surrounding the variant against various orthologous sequences.

Sequence annotation in neighborhood: help The regions or sites of interest surrounding the variant. In general the features listed are posttranslational modifications, binding sites, enzyme active sites, local secondary structure or other characteristics reported in the cited references. The "Sequence annotation in neighborhood" lines have a fixed format:
  • Type: the type of sequence feature.
  • Positions: endpoints of the sequence feature.
  • Description: contains additional information about the feature.
TypePositionsDescription
Chain 2 – 355 NAD-dependent protein deacylase sirtuin-6
Domain 27 – 272 Deacetylase sirtuin-type
Binding site 53 – 53
Site 18 – 18 Formation of an covalent adduct with nitro-fatty acid activators
Modified residue 33 – 33 N6-acetyllysine
Mutagenesis 17 – 17 K -> R. Does not affect acetylation level.
Mutagenesis 33 – 33 K -> Q. Mimics acetylation, leading to impaired ability to recognize and bind double-strand breaks (DSBs) sites.
Mutagenesis 33 – 33 K -> R. Decreased acetylation level.
Mutagenesis 45 – 45 S -> A. In AAA mutant; strongly decreased nucleosome-binding; when associated with 206-A--A-208.
Mutagenesis 56 – 56 S -> Y. Abolished NAD-dependent protein deacetylase, defatty-acylase and mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activities.
Helix 27 – 43
