SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier), a member of the ubiquitin-like protein family, regulates diverse cellular functions of a variety of target proteins, including transcription, DNA repair, nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and chromosome segregation.
SUMO precursor proteins undergo cleavage of the residues after the “GG” region by SUMO-specific proteases in maturation.
This cleavage of the precursor is a prerequisite for subsequent sumoylation.
The sentrin-specific (or SUMO-specific) protease (SENP) proteins belong to the peptidase C48 family and include SENP1-3 and SENP5-8.
SENP1, SENP2 and SENP3 degrade UBL1 and SMT3H2 conjugates and subsequently release the monomers from sumoylated substrates.
HIPK2 is a desumoylation target for SENP1 which shuttles between the cytoplasm and the nucleus.
Mutation analyses reveal that SENP1 contains the nuclear export sequence (NES) within the extreme carboxyl-terminal region, and SENP1 is exported to the cytoplasm in a NES-dependent manner.
SENP2 has been implicated as a downregulator of CTNNB1 levels and may therefore be a modulator of the Wnt pathway.
SUMO protease SENP3 reverses the sumoylation of MEF2 to augment its transcriptional and myogenic activities.
SENP5 localizes to the nucleolus and preferentially processes SUMO-3.
It is thought to play a role in mitosis and/or cytokinesis.
SENP6 localizes to the cytoplasm and releases SUMO-1.
Expression of SENP6 is higher in reproductive organs, indicating that it may mediate processes related to reproduction.
SENP8 is involved in the release of sentrins.
