The NAD-dependent histone/protein deacetylase activity of Sir2 (silent information regulator 2) accounts for its diverse biological roles including gene silencing, DNA damage repair, cell cycle regulation, and life span extension. We provide crystallographic evidence that 2'-O-acetyl ADP-ribose is the reaction product that is formed at the active site of Sir2 from the 2 ...
