SUMO1 (also known as UBL1) is a member of the SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) protein family which functions in a manner similar to ubiquitin. SUMO1 is bound to target proteins as part of a post-translational modification system and it is involved in a variety of cellular processes, such as nuclear transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, and protein stability (1). SUMO1 may be involved in the repair of TOP1-mediated DNA damage (2). The sumoylation pathway plays a significant role in mammalian DNA damage response. SUMO1 Protein is ideal for investigators involved in Signaling Proteins, Ubiquitin Proteins, Apoptosis/Autophagy, Cell Cycle, and NfkB Pathway research.
Store product at –70°C. For optimal storage, aliquot target into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature. For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
