Sumoylation

The transcriptional activity of NRs is also modulated by various posttranslational modifications of the receptors themselves or of their coregulatory proteins. Phosphorylation, as well as several other types of modification, such as acetylation, SUMOylation, ubiquitinylation, and methylation, has been reported to modulate the functions of NRs, potentially constituting an important cellular integration mechanism. In addition to the modifications of the receptors themselves, such modifications have been reported for their coactivators and corepressors. Therefore, these different modes of regulation reveal an unexpected complexity of the dynamics of NR-mediated transcription. [Pg.898]

Small tfbiquitin-like modifier represents a family of evolutionary conserved proteins that are distantly related in amino-acid sequence to ubiquitin, but share the same structural folding with ubiquitin proteins. SUMO proteins are covalently conjugated to protein substrates by an isopeptide bond through their carboxyl termini. SUMO addition to lysine residues of target proteins, termed SUMOylation, mediates post-transla-tional modification and requires a set of enzymes that are distinct from those that act on ubiquitin. SUMOylation regulates the activity of a variety of tar get proteins including transcription factors. [Pg.1162]

Small Ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is a conserved protein that is ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotes and is essential for viability. It serves as a reversible posttranslational modifier by forming an isopeptide bond with lysine residues in many target proteins, in a catalytic process termed SUMOylation. SUMOylation of proteins results in altered inter- or intramolecular interactions of the modified target (Fig. 1). [Pg.1163]

SUMOylation. Figure 1 SUMOylation is a reversible and regulated process. Target protein modification by SUMO can be initiated and terminated by different cues. Sumoylation leads to changes in the behavior of the modified protein, for example, different cellular localization, enhanced/reduced activity, or increased stability. These changes are due to alterations either in protein interactions or protein folding. [Pg.1163]

The third type of E3 ligases is represented by the polycomb protein 2 (Pc2), which was reported to enhance sumoylation of the substrate CtBP. N- and C-terminal domains in Pc2 that have been implicated in CtBP sumoylation do not resemble known E3 ligases. Like RanBP2, Pc2 expression is restricted to higher eukaryotes. [Pg.1164]

Formation of a novel binding site novel complexes may be formed between a SUMOylated protein and an effector protein that contains a SUMO-interacting motif (SIM or SBM). Proteins that contain two binding sites, a SIM and a weak binding motif to protein X, will bind more strongly to this protein if it is SUMOylated (Fig. 3b). Short peptides that contain the hydrophobic core motif [V/I]-X-[V/I]-[V/I] or [V/I-[V/I]]-X-[V/I] can act as a SIM and bind to SUMO. This core is often flanked by acidic amino acids and/or serine residues. [Pg.1165]

PTMs are important for the regulation of protein function and the maintenance of cellular hemostasis. There are 300 or more reported PTMs of proteins. PTMs may involve the addition of functional groups such as acetyls in acetylation, hydroxylation, amidation, and oxidation or the addition of peptides or proteins such as ubiquitination, SUMOylation (addition of small ubiquitin-like modifier), and ISGylation (addition of interferon-stimulated gene15). [Pg.388]

Fig. 4.1. Fundamentals of the ubiquitin system. Adapted from Ref [5]. Figure 4.1 shows the fundamentals of the ubiquitin system. (1) Ubiquitin is synthesized in linear chains or as the N-terminal fusion with small ribosomal subunits that are cleaved by de-ubiquitylating enzymes to form the active protein. Ubiquitin is then activated in an ATP-dependent manner by El where a thiolester linkage is formed. It is then transthiolated to the active-site cysteine of an E2. E2s interact with E3s and with substrates and mediate either the indirect (in the case of HECT E3s) or direct transfer of ubiquitin to substrate. A number of factors can affect this process. We know that interactions with Hsp70 can facilitate ubiquitylation in specific instances and competition for lysines on substrates with the processes of acetylation and sumoylation may be inhibitory in certain instances. (2) For efficient proteasomal targeting to occur chains of ubiquitin linked internally through K48 must be formed. This appears to involve multiple... Fig. 4.1. Fundamentals of the ubiquitin system.
