Increase in Activity During Calorie Restriction Requires Sirt1

Sir2 (silent information regulator 2) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucletide-dependent deacetylase required for longevity due to calorie restriction in yeast and Drosophila. In mammals, calorie restriction induces a complex pattern of physiological and behavioral changes. Here we report that the mammalian Sir2 ortholog, Sirt1, is required for the induction of a phenotype by calorie restriction in mice.
