| Description: | Data Source: Sanford-Burnham Center for Chemical Genomics (SBCCG) Source Affiliation: Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute (SBMRI, San Diego, CA) Network: NIH Molecular Libraries Probe Production Centers Network (MLPCN) Grant Number: 1 R03 MH084862-01 Assay Provider: Dr. Yuan Chen, Beckman Research Institute, City Of Hope, CA Protein modification by the SUMO (Small Ubiquitin-like MOdifier) family of proteins is an important post-translational modification that plays an essential role in many functions including gene transcription, cell cycle progression, DNA repair, viral infection, and the development of neurodegenerative diseases (1, 2). Recent proteomic studies have found that approximately 10% of the proteins encoded by the yeast genome are substrates for SUMO modification (3-5). The mechanism of how SUMOylation is involved in these cellular functions remains largely unclear. The inhibitors of SUMOylation would be useful to probe the roles of SUMOylation in cellular regulati |
