Ubc9-mediated sumoylation leads to transcriptional repression of IRF-1.

Kim EJ, Park JS, Um SJ

To characterize the regulatory mechanism of the interferon regulatory factor (IRF) family, we performed yeast two-hybrid screening with IRF-2 and isolated the small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-conjugating enzyme Ubc9, which also interacts with other IRF family members IRF-1 and ICSBP. Subsequent assays indicated that among the IRF family members, only IRF-1 interacts with SUMO-1 through its transcriptional activation domain. The interaction ... [more]
