Scientific Background | SIRT2 peptide, Ac-Gln-Pro-Lys-Lys(AC)-AMC is a synthetic research peptide in the SIRT2 deacetylase peptide substrate family. SIRT2 is an NAD+-dependent lysine deacetylase. Acetyl-lysine-containing fluorogenic peptides are used as defined SIRT2 substrates for enzyme-activity measurements and inhibitor screening, where deacetylation is coupled to reporter development. |
Experimental Notes | The exact sequence, residue range, species, stereochemistry, terminal state, labels, and other modifications can materially affect activity. Match the supplied construct to the intended assay and published reference context. |
