Abstract excerpt
Sumoylation is reversibly regulated by SUMO-specific proteases. We characterized a nucleolar SUMO-specific protease, SMT3IP1, which has a preference for SUMO-2/3. To elucidate SMT3IP1 function, we screened for its interacting proteins that may be its substrates or regulate its activity. By using yeast two-hybrid screening, we identified nucleophosmin (NPM) as an SMT3IP1-binding partner. SMT3IP1 could...
