Role of Desumoylation in the Development of Prostate Cancer
1 Aug 2006
Abstract excerpt
SUMO is a novel ubiquitin-like protein that can covalently modify a large number of nuclear proteins. SUMO modification has emerged as an important regulatory mechanism for protein function and localization. Sumoylation is a dynamic process that is mediated by activating (E1), conjugating (E2), and ligating (E3) enzymes and is readily reversed by a family of SUMO-specific proteases (SENPs). Since SUMO was...
