ABSTRACT
Since the discovery of SUMO twenty years ago, SUMO conjugation has become a widely recognized post-translational modification that targets a myriad of proteins in many processes. Great progress has been made in understanding the SUMO pathway enzymes, substrate sumoylation, and the interplay between sumoylation and other regulatory mechanisms in a variety of contexts. As these research directions continue to generate insights into SUMO-based regulation, several mechanisms by which sumoylation and desumoylation can orchestrate large biological effects are emerging. These include the ability to target multiple proteins within the same cellular structure or process, respond dynamically to external and internal stimuli, and modulate signaling pathways involving other post-translational modifications. Focusing on nuclear function and intracellular signaling, this review highlights a broad spectrum of historical data and recent advances with the aim of providing an overview of mechanisms underlying SUMO-mediated global effects to stimulate further inquiry into intriguing roles of SUMO.
