Structural highlights
FunctionSIR2_HUMAN NAD-dependent protein deacetylase, which deacetylates internal lysines on histone and non-histone proteins. Deacetylates 'Lys-40' of alpha-tubulin. Involved in the control of mitotic exit in the cell cycle, probably via its role in the regulation of cytoskeleton. Deacetylates PCK1, opposing proteasomal degradation. Deacetylates 'Lys-310' of RELA.[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedSIRT2 is a member of the human sirtuin family of proteins and possesses NAD(+)-dependent lysine deacetylase/deacylase activity. SIRT2 has been implicated in carcinogenesis in various cancers including leukaemia and is considered an attractive target for cancer therapy. Here, we identified NPD11033, a selective small-molecule SIRT2 inhibitor, by a high-throughput screen using the RIKEN NPDepo chemical library. NPD11033 was largely inactive against other sirtuins and zinc-dependent deacetylases. Crystallographic analysis revealed a unique mode of action, in which NPD11033 creates a hydrophobic cavity behind the substrate-binding pocket after a conformational change of the Zn-binding small domain of SIRT2. Furthermore, it forms a hydrogen bond to the active site histidine residue. In addition, NPD11033 inhibited cell growth of human pancreatic cancer PANC-1 cells with a concomitant increase in the acetylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A, a physiological substrate of SIRT2. Importantly, NPD11033 failed to inhibit defatty-acylase activity of SIRT2, despite its potent inhibitory effect on its deacetylase activity. Thus, NPD11033 will serve as a useful tool for both developing novel anti-cancer agents and elucidating the role of SIRT2 in various cellular biological processes.This article is part of a discussion meeting issue 'Frontiers in epigenetic chemical biology'.
