Phylogenetic relationship in the ubiquitin like modifier superfamily
• SUMO system is only found in Eukaryotes
• Yeasts, flies and worms only express a single SUMO
• Vertebrates express three paralogues SUMO-1, SUMO2, SUMO-3

The SUMO conjugation system
• SUMO system is only found in Eukaryotes
• Yeasts, flies and worms only express a single SUMO
• Vertebrates express three paralogues SUMO-1, SUMO2, SUMO-3
• Like ubiquitin SUMOs are conjugated to protein
substrates in a three step mechanism
• Most SUMO conjugation occurs within a consensus
motif yKXE/D
• SUMO conjugation can occur independent of E3s
• SUMO-2 and SUMO-3 contain consensus motifs and
can modify themselves to form polySUMO chains
• Deletion of yeast SUMO is lethal
• Deletion of Ubc9 in mice is lethal

SUMO and human diseases
Types of evidence linking SUMO with diseases
1. Disease protein x is modified by SUMO which alters its function.
2. SUMO conjugation is altered in disease cells
3. SUMO is abnormally distributed within disease cells
4. Enzymes of the SUMO modification system are abnormally expressed in disease cells
5. SUMO system modulation alters the disease phenotype in model cells

Example of a successful drug therapy involving SUMO - APL
Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia (APL)
•A rare condition driven by a chromosomal translocation resulting in the
fusion of the PML and retinoic acid receptor a proteins (PML-RARa)
•Very malignant and charaterised by sudden hemorrhages and accumulation
of promyelocytes in blood
•Retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide treatment induce differentiation of
promyelocytes and clinical remission.
•PML-RARa and PML are known to be SUMOylated and degraded in response
to arsenic

The SUMO system as a therapeutic target - Summary
•SUMO is functionally highly pleiotropic affecting many important cellular pathways
•There is a range of evidence linking SUMO to significant human diseases.
•The precise role of SUMO in many diseases is not determined and so its potential as a therapeutic
target is largely unclear
•The best approach to modulating SUMO function for individual disease therapy is unclear
•There is an academic and clinical argument for small molecule effectors of the SUMO system to
help clarify these issues.
