X-RAY STRUCTURE OF THE C-TERMINAL ULP1 PROTEASE DOMAIN IN COMPLEX WITH SMT3, THE YEAST ORTHOLOG OF SUMO.
Structural highlights
FunctionULP1_YEAST Protease that catalyzes two essential functions in the SUMO pathway: processing of full-length SMT3 to its mature form and deconjugation of SMT3 from targeted proteins. Has an essential role in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle.[1] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedModification of cellular proteins by the ubiquitin-like protein SUMO is essential for nuclear processes and cell cycle progression in yeast. The Ulp1 protease catalyzes two essential functions in the SUMO pathway: (1) processing of full-length SUMO to its mature form and (2) deconjugation of SUMO from targeted proteins. Selective reduction of the proteolytic reaction produced a covalent thiohemiacetal transition state complex between a Ulp1 C-terminal fragment and its cellular substrate Smt3, the yeast SUMO homolog. The Ulp1-Smt3 crystal structure and functional testing of elements within the conserved interface elucidate determinants of SUMO recognition, processing, and deconjugation. Genetic analysis guided by the structure further reveals a regulatory element N-terminal to the proteolytic domain that is required for cell growth in yeast. Ulp1-SUMO crystal structure and genetic analysis reveal conserved interactions and a regulatory element essential for cell growth in yeast.,Mossessova E, Lima CD Mol Cell. 2000 May;5(5):865-76.
