Summary
Enables protein lysine deacetylase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hydrogen peroxide; cellular response to peptide hormone stimulus; and post-embryonic cardiac muscle cell growth involved in heart morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in chromosome, subtelomeric region and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in chromosome; endoplasmic reticulum; and nucleus. Biomarker of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease; obesity; and transient cerebral ischemia. Orthologous to human SIRT6 (sirtuin 6).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
