human recombinant

Also known as: His6 SUMO-1 (SMT3C)

The ubiquitin-like SUMO-1 is conjugated to a variety of proteins in the presence of UbcH9 and the SAE1/SAE2 (human) or Aos1/Uba2 (yeast) activating enzyme. SUMO-1 is derived from the precursor pro-SUMO-1 (Accession # NM_003352). Human SUMO-1 shares 46% and 47% identity with SUMO-2 and SUMO-3 respectively. SUMOylation can occur without the requirement of a specific E3 ligase activity, where SUMO is transferred directly from UbcH9 to specific substrates. SUMOylated substrates are primarily localized to the nucleus (RanGAP-1, RANBP2, PML, p53, Sp100, HIPK2) but there are also cytosolic substrates (IκBα, GLUT1, GLUT4). SUMO modification has been implicated in functions such as nuclear transport, chromosome segregation and transcriptional regulation.
