Abstract

Calorie restriction (CR) slows aging in numerous species. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae , this effect requires Sir2, a conserved NAD + -dependent deacetylase. We report that CR reduces nuclear NAD + levels in vivo. Moreover, the activity of Sir2 and its human homologue SIRT1 are not affected by physiological alterations in the NAD + :NADH ratio. These data implicate alternate mechanisms of Sir2 regulation by CR.
