SLX8

SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase complex subunit SLX8, YER116C
Subunit of Slx5-Slx8 SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) complex; stimulated by prior attachment of SUMO to the substrate; contains a C-terminal RING domain; forms nuclear foci upon DNA replication stress; null mutants are aneuploid, have a metaphase delay, and spindle defects including: mispositioned spindles, fish hook spindles, and aberrant spindle kinetics; required for maintenance of genome integrity like human ortholog RNF4

SIZ2, SUMO ligase NFI1, L000002966, YOR156C
SUMO E3 ligase; catalyzes sumoylation of Yku70p/Yku80p and Sir4p promoting chromatin anchoring; DNA-bound form catalyzes a DNA-damaged triggered sumoylation wave resulting in multisite modification of several DNA repair proteins, enhancing interactions between these proteins and accelerating repair; promotes telomere anchoring to the nuclear envelope; involved in maintenance of proper telomere length; NFI1 has a paralog, SIZ1, that arose from the whole genome duplication

Biochemical Activity (Sumoylation)

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.

Activation of the Slx5-Slx8 ubiquitin ligase by poly-small ubiquitin-like modifier conjugates.

Mullen JR, Brill SJ

Protein sumoylation is a regulated process that is important for the health of human and yeast cells. In budding yeast, a subset of sumoylated proteins is targeted for ubiquitination by a conserved heterodimeric ubiquitin (Ub) ligase, Slx5-Slx8, which is needed to suppress the accumulation of high molecular weight small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) conjugates. Structure-function analysis indicates that the Slx5-Slx8 complex ... [more]
