SUMOylation regulates tumorigenesis and progression: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic applications

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
SUMOylation, a dynamic post‐translational modification, acts as a master regulator at the heart of tumor malignancy. Our work delineates how the SUMOylation cycle—mediated by E1/E2/E3 enzymes and reversed by SENPs—orchestrates multiple hallmarks of cancer. The central pathway converges on three critical pathological axes: 1.
