Sirt5, a mitochondrial Sirtuin, has been identified herein as an efficient demalonylase and desuccinylase. Disclosed herein are assays to identify Sirt5 modulators based on this robust enzymatic activity. Sirt5-specific modulators can be used study the biological function of Sirt5 and to target Sirt5 activities in treating human diseases.
