Research Abstract |
The aim of this study is to elucidate roles of protein SUMOylation in carcinogenesis using a chemical biology approach. Using an in situ cell-based SUMOylation assay system, we identified several small molecule inhibitors of SUMOylation including spectomycin B1 as SUMO E2 (Ubc9) inhibitor. Our findings suggested that Ubc9 inhibitors such as spectomycin B1 have a potential as a therapeutic agent against ERalpha-dependent breast cancers. Furthermore, we identified a novel deSUMOylatuon enzyme, SENP1, inhibitor by an in situ deSUMOylation assay. We found that SENP1 inhibitor reduced the activity of HIF-1alpha,an important transcriptional factor for cancer survival under hypoxia microenvironment. In addition, we succeeded in developing novel assay systems for detecting non-covalent interactions between SUMO and SIM using a split-luciferase complementation and identified first small molecules that inhibit SUMO-dependent protein-protein interactions.
