SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier) family proteins are not only structurally but also mechanistically related to ubiquitin in that they are posttranslationally attached to other proteins. As ubiquitin, SUMO is covalently linked to its substrates via amide (isopeptide) bonds formed between its C-terminal glycine residue and the epsilon-amino group ...

A Proteomic Study of SUMO-2 Target Proteins [PDF]
The SUMO family in vertebrates includes at least three distinct proteins (SUMO-1, -2, and -3) that are added as post-translational modifications to target proteins. A considerable number of SUMO-1 target proteins have been identified, but little is known about SUMO-2.

Traffic Modeling with SUMO: a Tutorial [PDF]
This paper presents a step-by-step guide to generating and simulating a traffic scenario using the open-source simulation tool SUMO. It introduces the common pipeline used to generate a synthetic traffic model for SUMO, how to import existing traffic data into a model to achieve accuracy in traffic simulation (that is, producing a traffic model which ...

Regulation of the Ebola Virus VP24 Protein by SUMO [PDF]
The Ebola virus VP24 protein plays a critical role in escape of the virus from the host innate immune response. Therefore, deciphering the molecular mechanisms modulating VP24 activity may be useful to identify potential targets amenable to therapeutics.

A Photo-Crosslinking Approach to Identify Class II SUMO-1 Binders
The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is involved in various cellular processes and mediates known non-covalent protein-protein interactions by three distinct binding surfaces, whose interactions are termed class I to class III.

The Computation of Cyclic Peptide with Prolin-Prolin Bond as Fusion Inhibitor of DENV Envelope Protein through Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Simulation [PDF]
A disease that caused by dengue virus (DENV) has become the major health problem of the world. Nowadays, no effective treatment is available to overcome the disease due to the level of dengue virus pathogeneses. A novel treatment method such as antiviral drug is highly necessary for coping with the dengue disease.

A Real-Time SUMO-Binding Assay for the Analysis of the SUMO-SIM Protein Interaction Network [PDF]
SUMO-interacting motifs (SIMs) play a central role in the fate of SUMO-modified proteins. Here we report a real-time SUMO-binding assay. It can be applied to the identification of SIMs and to screening for the identification of novel SUMO-binding proteins.

SUMO-1 possesses DNA binding activity
Background Conjugation of small ubiquitin-related modifiers (SUMOs) is a frequent post-translational modification of proteins. SUMOs can also temporally associate with protein-targets via SUMO binding motifs (SBMs).

QarSUMO: A Parallel, Congestion-optimized Traffic Simulator [PDF]
Traffic simulators are important tools for tasks such as urban planning and transportation management. Microscopic simulators allow per-vehicle movement simulation, but require longer simulation time. The simulation overhead is exacerbated when there is traffic congestion and most vehicles move slowly.

Background: It has been reported that blocking small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) conjugation by silencing SUMO gene remarkably decreased tumor growth in vivo.
