Deacetylation of serine hydroxymethyl-transferase 2 by SIRT3 promotes colorectal carcinogenesis

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase 2 (SHMT2) converts serine to glycine in mitochondria and is upregulated in a variety of cancers. Here the authors show that acetylation of the lysine-95 (K95) residue negatively regulates SHMT2 expression and activity and is deacetylated by SIRT3 in colorectal cancer.
