RNF4 (RING finger protein 4) is a STUbL [SUMO (small ubiquitin-related modifier)-targeted ubiquitin ligase] controlling PML (promyelocytic leukaemia) nuclear bodies, DNA double strand break repair and other nuclear functions. In the present paper, we describe that the sequence and spacing of the SIMs (SUMO-interaction motifs) in RNF4 regulate the avidity-driven recognition of substrate proteins carrying SUMO chains of variable length. The ubiquitin ligase RNF4 targets proteins for proteasomal degradation if they are modified with SUMO chains. RNF4 recognizes its substrates by using short peptide motifs that interact non-covalently with SUMO chains if they contain at least two SUMO moieties.
