The Two-Faced Role of SIRT6 in Cancer
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is a NAD<sup>+</sup>-dependent nuclear deacylase and mono-ADP-ribosylase with a wide spectrum of substrates. Through its pleiotropic activities, SIRT6 modulates either directly or indirectly key processes linked to cell fate determination and oncogenesis such as DNA dam...
