Nucleosomes enhance SIRT6 deacetylase activity. (A) Time course analysis of a recombinant bacterial–expressed SIRT6-Flag deacetylation of H3K9Ac and H3K14Ac as part of histone octamers (left) or nucleosomes (right). (B) Kinetics of SIRT6-Flag deacetylation of H3K9Ac. (C–G) Kinetics of SIRT6-Flag deacetylation of H3K56Ac, H4K5Ac, H4K8Ac, H4K12Ac and H4K16Ac. (H) Global acetylation of H3K9, H3K14, H3K56, H4K5, H4K8, H4K12 and H4K16 in HeLa cells following SIRT6 knockdown.
