SIRT2 is a member of the sirtuin family of NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylases. It is involved in metabolic homeostasis and has been linked to the progression of age-related diseases. Casitas B-lineage lymphoma (Cbl) proteins regulate signal transduction through many pathways and, consequently, regulate cell function and development. Cbl proteins are ubiquitin ligases that ubiquitinate and target many signaling molecules for degradation. The function of SIRT2 is modulated by post-translational modifications. However, the precise molecular signaling mechanism of SIRT2 through interactions with Cbl proteins has not yet been established. In this study, we investigated the potential regulation of SIRT2 function by the Cbl mammalian family members Cbl-b and c-Cbl. We found that Cbl-b and c-Cbl increased the protein level and stability of SIRT2 and that Cbl-b and c-Cbl interact with SIRT2. They were also found to regulate the deacetylase activity of SIRT2. Further investigation revealed that Cbl-mediated SIRT2 regulation occurred via ubiquitination of SIRT2. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
