Swapping small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) isoform specificity of SUMO proteases SENP6 and SENP7.
SUMO proteases can regulate the amounts of SUMO-conjugated proteins in the cell by cleaving off the isopeptidic bond between SUMO and the target protein. Of the six members that constitute the human SENP/ULP protease family, SENP6 and SENP7 are the most divergent members in their conserved catalytic domain. The SENP6 and SENP7 subclass displays a clear proteolytic cleavage preference for SUMO2/...
متن کاملSUMO chains: polymeric signals.
Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins are conjugated to a wide variety of target proteins that play roles in all biological processes. Target proteins are conjugated to ubiquitin monomers or to ubiquitin polymers that form via all seven internal lysine residues of ubiquitin. The fate of these target proteins is controlled in a chain architecture-dependent manner. SUMO (small ubiquitin-related m...
متن کاملCharacterization of SENP7, a SUMO-2/3-specific isopeptidase.
The modification of proteins by SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier) plays important roles in regulating the activity, stability and cellular localization of target proteins. Similar to ubiquitination, SUMO modification is a dynamic process that can be reversed by SENPs [SUMO-1/sentrin/SMT3 (suppressor of mif two 3 homologue 1)-specific peptidases]. To date, six SENPs have been discovered in...
متن کاملThe SUMO protease SENP6 is a direct regulator of PML nuclear bodies
Promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) is the core component of PML-nuclear bodies (PML NBs). The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) system (and, in particular, SUMOylation of PML) is a critical component in the formation and regulation of PML NBs. SUMO protease SENP6 has been shown previously to be specific for SUMO-2/3-modified substrates and shows preference for SUMO polymers. Here, we furth...
متن کاملActivity profiling of human deSUMOylating enzymes (SENPs) with synthetic substrates suggests an unexpected specificity of two newly characterized members of the family.
SENPs [Sentrin/SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier)-specific proteases] include proteases that activate the precursors of SUMOs, or deconjugate SUMOs attached to target proteins. SENPs are usually assayed on protein substrates, and for the first time we demonstrate that synthetic substrates can be convenient tools in determining activity and specificity of these proteases. We synthesized a g...
