High impact information on HST2

  • Structure and autoregulation of the yeast Hst2 homolog of Sir2 [1].
  • Kinetic studies further suggest that ADP-ribose inhibits the Hst2 reaction in a biologically relevant manner [2].
  • Here we use in vitro deacetylase assays and a variety of potential substrates to examine the substrate specificity of yeast homologue Hst2 [3].
  • This nuclear exclusion is mediated by the exportin chromosomal region maintenance 1 (Crm1) and a putative leucine-rich nuclear export sequence in Hst2, which overlaps a unique autoregulatory helix [4].
  • Structure of the yeast Hst2 protein deacetylase in ternary complex with 2'-O-acetyl ADP ribose and histone peptide [5].
 

Biological context of HST2

  • Here, we show that Hst2 moves between the nucleus and cytoplasm, but is largely cytoplasmic owing to efficient nuclear export [4].
 

Associations of HST2 with chemical compounds

 

Other interactions of HST2

  • HST2 mediates SIR2-independent life-span extension by calorie restriction [7].
