SIRT6 is a histone H3 lysine 9 deacetylase that modulates telomeric chromatin
Open accessAbstract
The Sir2 deacetylase regulates chromatin silencing and lifespan in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In mice, deficiency for the Sir2 family member SIRT6 leads to a shortened lifespan and a premature ageing-like phenotype. However, the molecular mechanisms of SIRT6 function are unclear. SIRT6 is a chromatin-associated protein, but no enzymatic activity of SIRT6 at chromatin has yet been detected, and the identity of physiological SIRT6 substrates is unknown. Here we show that the human SIRT6 protein is an NAD+-dependent, histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) deacetylase that modulates telomeric chromatin. SIRT6 associates specifically with telomeres, and SIRT6 depletion leads to telomere dysfunction with end-to-end chromosomal fusions and premature cellular senescence. Moreover, SIRT6-depleted cells exhibit abnormal telomere structures that resemble defects observed in Werner syndrome, a premature ageing disorder. At telomeric chromatin, SIRT6 deacetylates H3K9 and is required for the stable association of WRN, the factor that is mutated in Werner syndrome. We propose that SIRT6 contributes to the propagation of a specialized chromatin state at mammalian telomeres, which in turn is required for proper telomere metabolism and function. Our findings constitute the first identification of a physiological enzymatic activity of SIRT6, and link chromatin regulation by SIRT6 to telomere maintenance and a human premature ageing syndrome.

TL;DR
Human SIRT6 is an NAD+-dependent histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) deacetylase that associates with telomeres in S phase and maintains low H3K9 acetylation there. SIRT6 depletion causes telomere dysfunction, chromosomal end-to-end fusions, and premature cellular senescence, and impairs WRN association at telomeric chromatin, linking SIRT6 to telomere maintenance and Werner syndrome-like defects.
Key findings
- SIRT6 knockdown in WI-38 human fibroblasts shortened replicative lifespan, causing premature senescence about ten population doublings before controls, with increased senescence-associated β-galactosidase staining; two independent SIRT6 shRNAs reproduced this, while irrelevant shRNAs did not.
- SIRT6-depleted cells showed elevated telomere dysfunction-induced foci, non-recurrent chromosomal end-to-end fusions that were more pronounced at later population doublings, and Werner syndrome-like telomere abnormalities including sister telomere loss, telomere doublets, and weak or absent telomere signals at fusion sites; mean telomere length was not significantly reduced.
- SIRT6 deacetylated H3K9Ac specifically among tested acetylated histone peptides, with no deacetylation detected for 12 other acetylated histone peptides; the catalytic mutant H133Y markedly decreased activity. SIRT6 knockdown caused H3K9 hyperacetylation at telomeric chromatin in S phase, and S6KO mouse cells also showed telomeric H3K9 hyperacetylation.
- SIRT6 was required for stable WRN association at telomeric chromatin; SIRT6 knockdown significantly inhibited WRN association in U2OS and IMR90 cells. Telomerase expression reversed premature senescence, whereas augmenting base excision repair did not, and low oxygen culture did not prevent senescence.
Methods
- Retrovirus-mediated shRNA knockdown of SIRT6 in WI-38, IMR90, U2OS, and HeLa cells, with replicative senescence assays, SA-β-gal staining, immuno-FISH TIF assays, metaphase cytogenetics/SKY/telomere FISH, and cell-cycle flow cytometry.
- Telomere chromatin immunoprecipitation (T-ChIP) after thymidine synchronization and release, using antibodies against SIRT6, Flag, WRN, and H3K9Ac, with telomeric DNA detected by slot blot.
- In vitro histone deacetylation assays with recombinant SIRT6 and acetylated histone tail peptides or full-length histones, including mass spectrometry; 293T cells were transfected with wild-type or H133Y SIRT6 and analyzed by Western blotting.
Limitations
- Stated: SIRT6 showed only modest in vitro deacetylation activity on H3K9Ac peptides, and no direct SIRT6-WRN interaction at chromatin was observed, although additional functional or physical interactions might exist.
- Stated: S6KO mouse cells showed telomeric H3K9 hyperacetylation but did not display the downstream cellular defects seen in human cells, which the authors attribute to the large functional reserve of mouse telomeres.
- Evident: many conclusions rely on shRNA knockdown and overexpression in cultured cells, and several supporting results are reported as “data not shown”; global H3K9Ac levels did not differ significantly, so the key effect is telomere-specific.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
