| ORF Classification | Verified |
| Description | Conserved NAD+ dependent histone deacetylase of the Sirtuin family; involved in regulation of lifespan; plays roles in silencing at HML, HMR, telomeres, and the rDNA locus; negatively regulates initiation of DNA replication; functions as a regulator of autophagy like mammalian homolog SIRT1, and also of mitophagy; SIR2 has a paralog, HST1, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) |
