Posttranslational modification of a substrate protein with the ubiquitin-like modifier SUMO equips the substrate protein with an additional protein interaction interface. Cooperative binding of a partner protein at each unit of the protein-SUMO conjugate results in the re-wiring of the cellular protein network. We will investigate both the orientation-dependent cooperativity and allosteric cooperativity of the protein binding interfaces and exploit these effects to identify new binding partners. Using new protein chemistry tools developed in this project as well as predictions from computational simulation provided in the research consortium, we will focus on the recognition of SUMO chains and the formation of the E3-ligase complexes relevant for SUMO transfer.

用泛素样修饰物SUMO对底物蛋白进行翻译后修饰，使底物蛋白具有额外的蛋白质相互作用界面。在蛋白质- sumo偶联物的每个单元上，一个伙伴蛋白的合作结合导致细胞蛋白质网络的重新布线。我们将研究蛋白质结合界面的定向依赖协同性和变构协同性，并利用这些效应来识别新的结合伙伴。利用本项目开发的新的蛋白质化学工具以及研究联盟提供的计算模拟预测，我们将重点研究SUMO链的识别和与SUMO转移相关的e3连接酶复合物的形成。
