A Role for Non-Covalent SUMO Interaction Motifs in Pc2/CBX4 E3 Activity
BACKGROUND Modification of proteins by the small ubiquitin like modifier (SUMO) is an essential process in mammalian cells. SUMO is covalently attached to lysines in target proteins via an enzymatic cascade which consists of E1 and E2, SUMO activating and conjugating enzymes. There is also a variable requirement for non-enzymatic E3 adapter like proteins, which can increase the efficiency and s...
متن کاملGPS-SUMO: a tool for the prediction of sumoylation sites and SUMO-interaction motifs
Small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs) regulate a variety of cellular processes through two distinct mechanisms, including covalent sumoylation and non-covalent SUMO interaction. The complexity of SUMO regulations has greatly hampered the large-scale identification of SUMO substrates or interaction partners on a proteome-wide level. In this work, we developed a new tool called GPS-SUMO for the ...
متن کاملA novel role for the SUMO E3 ligase PIAS1 in cancer metastasis
Tumor metastasis contributes to the grave morbidity and mortality of cancer, but the mechanisms underlying tumor cell invasiveness and metastasis remain incompletely understood. Here, we report that expression of the SUMO E3 ligase PIAS1 suppresses TGFβ-induced activation of the matrix metalloproteinase MMP2 in human breast cancer cells. We also find that knockdown of endogenous PIAS1 or inhibi...
متن کاملMultivalent interactions of the SUMO-interaction motifs in RING finger protein 4 determine the specificity for chains of the SUMO
RNF4 (RING finger protein 4) is a STUbL [SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier)-targeted ubiquitin ligase] controlling PML (promyelocytic leukaemia) nuclear bodies, DNA double strand break repair and other nuclear functions. In the present paper, we describe that the sequence and spacing of the SIMs (SUMO-interaction motifs) in RNF4 regulate the avidity-driven recognition of substrate proteins...
متن کاملThe n → π* interaction: a rapidly emerging non-covalent interaction.
This perspective describes the current status of a recently discovered non-covalent interaction named as the n → π* interaction, which is very weak and counterintuitive in nature. In this review, we have provided a brief overview of the widespread presence of this interaction in biomacromolecules, small biomolecules and materials, as well as the physical nature of this interaction explored usin...
