چکیده

Small ubiquitin-related modifiers (SUMOs) are conjugated to proteins to regulate a variety of cellular processes. SENPs are cysteine proteases with a catalytic center located within a channel between two subdomains that catalyzes SUMO C-terminal cleavage for processing of SUMO precursors and de-SUMOylation of target proteins. The β-grasp domain of SUMOs binds to an exosite cleft, and allosterically activates SENPs via an unknown mechanism. Our molecular dynamics simulations showed that binding of the β-grasp domain induces significant conformational and dynamic changes in SENP1, including widening of the exosite cleft and quenching of nanosecond dynamics in all but a distal region. A dock-and-coalesce mechanism emerges for SENP-catalyzed SUMO cleavage: the wedging of the β-grasp domain enables the docking of the proximal portion of the C-terminus and the strengthened cross-channel motional coupling initiates inter-subdomain correlated motions to allow for the distal portion to coalesce around the catalytic center.

Conformational flexibility and changes underlying activation of the SUMO-specific protease SENP1 by remote substrate binding

Ubiquitin-like (Ubl) modifications regulate nearly all cellular functions in eukaryotes with the largest superfamily of Ubl-specific proteases being Cys proteases. SENP1 is a model for this protease family and responsible for processing SUMO. Here using nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation measurements, chemical shift perturbation and enzyme kinetic analysis, we provide structural insights int...

SUMOylation Regulates Insulin Exocytosis Downstream of Secretory Granule Docking in Rodents and Humans

OBJECTIVE The reversible attachment of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins controls target localization and function. We examined an acute role for the SUMOylation pathway in downstream events mediating insulin secretion. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied islets and β-cells from mice and human donors, as well as INS-1 832/13 cells. Insulin secretion, intracellular Ca(2+), and β...

Exploring the Desumoylation Process of SENP1: A Study Combined MD Simulations with QM/MM Calculations on SENP1-SUMO1-RanGAP1

The small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-specific protease (SENP) processes SUMOs to mature forms and deconjugates them from various modified substrates. Loss of the equilibrium from desumoylation catalyzed by abnormal SENP1 is associated with cancers and transcription factor activity. In spite of the significant role of SENP1, the molecular basis of its desumoylation remains unclear. Here, ...

SUMOylation protects against IL-1β-induced apoptosis in INS-1 832/13 cells and human islets.

Posttranslational modification by the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) peptides, known as SUMOylation, is reversed by the sentrin/SUMO-specific proteases (SENPs). While increased SUMOylation reduces β-cell exocytosis, insulin secretion, and responsiveness to GLP-1, the impact of SUMOylation on islet cell survival is unknown. Mouse islets, INS-1 832/13 cells, or human islets were transduced ...

One SUMO is sufficient to silence the dimeric potassium channel K2P1.

Small ubiquitin modifier 1 (SUMO1) is shown to regulate K2P1 background channels in the plasma membrane (PM) of live mammalian cells. Confocal microscopy reveals native SUMO1, SAE1, and Ubc9 (the enzymes that activate and conjugate SUMO1) at PM where SUMO1 and expressed human K2P1 are demonstrated to colocalize. Silent K2P1 channels in excised PM patches are activated by SUMO isopeptidase (SENP...
