Biochemical Activity (Desumoylation)

An interaction is inferred from the biochemical effect of one protein upon another, for example, GTP-GDP exchange activity or phosphorylation of a substrate by a kinase. The bait protein executes the activity on the substrate hit protein. A Modification value is recorded for interactions of this type with the possible values Phosphorylation, Ubiquitination, Sumoylation, Dephosphorylation, Methylation, Prenylation, Acetylation, Deubiquitination, Proteolytic Processing, Glucosylation, Nedd(Rub1)ylation, Deacetylation, No Modification, Demethylation.

The SUMO protease SENP6 is a direct regulator of PML nuclear bodies.

Hattersley N, Shen L, Jaffray EG, Hay RT

Promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) is the core component of PML-nuclear bodies (PML NBs). The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) system (and, in particular, SUMOylation of PML) is a critical component in the formation and regulation of PML NBs. SUMO protease SENP6 has been shown previously to be specific for SUMO-2/3-modified substrates and shows preference for SUMO polymers. Here, we further investigate ... [more]

Throughput

  • Low Throughput

Additional Notes

  • SENP6 can cleave di-SUMO1, di-SUMO2, or mixed SUMO1-SUMO2 dimers but displays clear preference for SUMO2 dimers in vitro
