A) Phylogenetic tree of Sir2 homologues from N. crassa (NST-1 through NST-7) and humans (SIRT1 through SIRT7) based on a single CLUSTALW alignment of their putative Sir2 catalytic domains. B) Alignment of the Sir2 domain from S. cerevisiae Sir2p with the corresponding regions of Neurospora sirtuins NST-1, NST-2, NST-3, and NST-5. The most highly conserved regions are underlined in the Sir2p sequence.
