Journal ArticleDOI
Pml Is Critical for Nd10 Formation and Recruits the Pml-Interacting Protein Daxx to This Nuclear Structure When Modified by Sumo-1
Alexander M. Ishov,Alexey G. Sotnikov,Dmitri Negorev,Olga Vladimirova,Norma F Neff,Tetsu Kamitani,Edward T.H. Yeh,Jerome F. Strauss,Gerd G. Maul +8 more
TL;DR: The findings identify the basic requirements for ND10 formation and suggest a dynamic mechanism for protein recruitment to these nuclear domains controlled by the SUMO-1 modification state of PML.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ubiquitin-like proteins: new wines in new bottles.
TL;DR: This review will focus on the biology and biochemistry of the Sentrin/SUMO and NEDD8 modification pathways, which are clearly distinct from the ubiquitination pathway and have unique biological functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of NEDD8, a developmentally down-regulated ubiquitin-like protein.
TL;DR: NEDD8 provides another substrate for covalent protein modification and may play a unique role during development and may be conjugated to other proteins in a manner analogous to ubiquitination.
Journal Article
Protection against Fas/APO-1- and tumor necrosis factor-mediated cell death by a novel protein, sentrin.
Takafumi Okura,Limin Gong,Tetsu Kamitani,Torazo Wada,Izumi Okura,Chik Fong Wei,Hui Ming Chang,Edward T.H. Yeh +7 more
TL;DR: Sentrin is a novel protein of 101 amino acids with homology to ubiquitin, Nedd8, and a Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein, Smt3, which interacts with Fas/APO-1 and TNF receptor 1 but not with FADD/MORT1 or CD40.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Three Major Sentrinization Sites in PML
Tetsu Kamitani,Katsumi Kito,Hung Phi Nguyen,Hiroyoshi Wada,Taeko Fukuda-Kamitani,Edward T.H. Yeh +5 more
TL;DR: Sendrinization of PML, in the context of the RING finger and the B1 box, regulates nuclear body formation and it is shown that sentrinized PML-RARα could be restored by overexpression of sentrin, but not by retinoic acid treatment.
