摘要:SUMO是一种小泛素相关修饰物,参与蛋白质的翻译后修饰,这一修饰过程即称为SUMO化。SUMO化修饰在加强蛋白质的稳定性、核质转运、DNA的修复和复制、染色体的有丝分裂、减数分裂等调节细胞活动中发挥重要作用。SUMO化是一动态过程,能被SUMO特异性蛋白酶(SENP)所逆转,形成SUMO化与去SUMO化的动态平衡。此平衡一旦被打破,将导致SUMO或者SENP在细胞中的异常表达,进而导致肿瘤的发生。

Abstract:SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier) is involved in the post-translational modifications of proteins, and this process is referred to as SUMOylation. SUMOylation plays an important role in the regulation of cellular activities such as strengthening the stability of the protein, nucleocytoplasmic transport, DNA repair, DNA replication, mitotic and meiotic chromosome behavior, et al. SUMOylation is a dynamic process and can be reversed by SUMOspecific proteases (SENP). Once the balance between SUMOylation and deSUMOylation is broken, there will be an aberrant expression of SUMO or SENPs in cells to happen, which may lead to the tumor occurrence.
