The Role of E1 SUMO Activating Enzyme in the Development of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
SUMOylation is an Ubiquitin-like post-translational modification thought to affect a diverse array of cellular processes, from chromosome segregation to nuclear translocation. The E1 SUMO-activating enzyme is required for the earliest steps of SUMO conjugation, and is composed of heterodimeric Aosl and Uba2 subunits.

TDP‐43 proteinopathies and neurodegeneration: insights from Caenorhabditis elegans models

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The manuscript explores structural and functional features of TDP‐43 and its worm homologue, TDP‐1, highlighting conserved and divergent structural and functional features. Using genetically engineered C. elegans models, key pathological features of TDP‐43 proteinopathies—including aggregation, neurodegeneration, and motor deficits—are recapitulated ...

Role of the ubiquitin-selective CDC-48/UFD-1/NPL-4 chaperone in DNA replication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Faithful transmission of genomic information requires tight spatiotemporal regulation of DNA replication factors. Posttranslational modifications, such as ubiquitylation, constitute a fast and effective mechanism to control such complex protein function.

Ubiquitin and SUMO conjugation as biomarkers of acute myeloid leukemias response to chemotherapies

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2019
This study describes the identification of a new class of biomarkers of cancer response to therapies based on protein modification by ubiquitin and SUMO and developed tools to validate them in acute myeloid leukemia patient samples.

Structural analysis of the NifL‐NifA complex reveals the molecular basis of anti‐activation of nitrogen fixation gene expression in Azotobacter vinelandii

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Using cryo‐EM combined with biochemical and genetic approaches, we mapped the interaction surface between NifL and NifA to gain insights into the regulation of nitrogen fixation genes in A. vinelandii. Our findings suggest that NifL, a homolog of histidine kinases lacking phosphorylation activity, evolved to act as a steric block of NifA activity ...

Targeting the SUMO E1‐E2 Enzyme Interaction in Plasmodium falciparum

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2015
Resistance to first‐line anti‐malarial drugs has accelerated the need for new drugs with novel targets for effective malaria treatment. Many of the current anti‐malarial drugs work in part by overwhelming the parasite stress response. In eukaryotes, the oxidative stress response machinery includes antioxidants as well as SUMOylation, a post ...

Cas9 beyond CRISPR – SUMOylation, effector‐like potential and pathogenic adaptation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This Viewpoint explores the possibility that Cas9, beyond its canonical role in CRISPR immunity, may act as a host‐modulating effector during infection by Cas9‐encoding bacteria. Such a nucleomodulin‐like function could be influenced by eukaryotic post‐translational modifications, particularly SUMOylation, with potential implications for host–pathogen ...

Maintaining basal B‐RAF kinase activity for abscisic acid signaling via reciprocal phosphoregulation of a single serine residue

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Clade A protein phosphatases of type 2C PP2Cs dephosphorylate B3 RAF kinases at a conserved serine residue critical for ATP binding, thereby maintaining their basal activity. Under stress, RAFs rapidly autophosphorylate this residue for autoinhibition.
