small ubiquitin-related modifier 1; SUMO-1; sentrin; ubiquitin-like protein SMT3C; SMT3 homolog 3; ubiquitin-homology domain protein PIC1; ubiquitin-like protein UBL1; GAP-modifying protein 1; GMP1 (SUMO1, SMT3C, SMT3H3, UBL1, OK/SW-cl43)
Function:
- ubiquitin-like protein which can be covalently attached to target Lys as a monomer
- does not seem to be involved in protein degradation
- may function as an antagonist of ubiquitin in the degradation process
- plays a role in a number of cellular processes such as
a) nuclear transport
b) DNA replication & repair
c) mitosis
d) signal transduction
- involved in targeting RANGAP1 to the nuclear pore complex protein RANBP2
- covalent attachment to its substrates requires prior activation by the E1 complex SAE1-SAE2 & linkage to the E2 enzyme UBE2I, & can be promoted by an E3 ligase such as PIAS1-4, RANBP2 or CBX4
- cleavage of precursor form by SENP1 or SENP2 is necessary for function
- interacts with SAE2, UBE2I, RANBP2, PIAS1 & PIAS2
- interacts with PARK2
- covalently attached to a number of proteins such as IKFZ1, PML, RANGAP1, HIPK2, SP100, p53, p73-alpha, MDM2, JUN, DNMT3B & TDG
- also interacts with HIF1A, HIPK2, HIPK3, CHD3, EXOSC9, RAD51 & RAD52
Structure:
- belongs to the ubiquitin family, SUMO subfamily
- contains 1 ubiquitin-like domain
Compartment:
- nucleus membrane, nucleus speckle
- cytoplasm
