Nice to see this one out in @natcomms.nature.com from @themorrislab.bsky.social, @leneyms.bsky.social, @anoopsinghchauhan.bsky.social, @profstewartlab.bsky.social. Still, plenty of surprises into how RNF168 works! rdcu.be/eiXxy
PIN1-SUMO2/3 motif suppresses excessive RNF168 chromatin accumulation and ubiquitin signaling to promote IR resistance
Nature Communications - The ubiquitin ligase, RNF168, promotes DNA break repair but must be regulated to prevent run-away ubiquitin signaling. Here, the authors identify a three-step...

We are delighted to announce our first-ever BlueSky post – and the latest paper from our lab. with the Leney Lab @leneyms.bsky.social dlvr.it/TJN3yl @cp-molcell.bsky.social @unibirmingham.bsky.social
SUMO4 promotes SUMO deconjugation required for DNA double-strand-break repair
Garvin et al. find that the poorly explored SUMO isoform, SUMO4, enhances the deSUMOylation activity of the SUMO protease SENP1. Consequently, SUMO4 acts to restrain excessive cellular SUMOylation. In...
