SRT1720 is a NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) activator (EC50 = 0.16 μM) highly selective for SIRT1 over SIRT2 or SIRT3. It binds to the SIRT1 enzyme-peptide substrate complex at an allosteric site amino-terminal to the catalytic domain and lower the Michaelis constant for acetylated substrates. Human SIRT1 is the homolog of yeast silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) and may act to regulate the activity of the p53 tumor suppressor and inhibit apoptosis. Studies in yeast suggest that sirtuins may be involved in epigentic gene silencing and deactylation of proteins that regulate the cell cycle. It can extend lifespan in yeast and C. elegans in a manner that resembles caloric restriction.
