The active human SUMO-I (the 1-97 animo acid region of the Ubiquitin-like protein SMT3C precursor). The enzyme contains a single polypeptide band of 11 kDa. The predicted molecular weight of hSOMO I is 11 kDa. The The final fraction of enzyme contains single polypeptide band of approximately 20 kDa on SDS PAGE.
SUMO1 is a protein that belongs to the SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) protein family. SUMO1 functions in a manner similar to ubiquitin in that it is bound to target proteins as part of a post-translational modification system. Still, unlike ubiquitin which targets proteins for degradation, SUMO1 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, for example nuclear transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, and protein stability. SUMO1 is not active until the last four amino acids of the carboxy-terminus are cleaved off.
