Abstract excerpt
Metal-responsive transcription factor 1 (MTF-1) regulates a variety of genes involving in metal homeostasis and oxidative stress. We have shown that MTF-1 can be conjugated by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) and forms complexes with cellular factor(s) in a SUMO-interacting motif (SIM)-dependent manner. To investigate whether the interaction of MTF-1 and its SUMO conjugate occurs, we expressed and isolated...
