Molecular basis for the regulation of the SUMOylation activity of the Smc5/6 complex by Esc2
Post-translational modification by SUMO regulates a wide array of cellular processes. Despite the large number of SUMOylated substrates, only a limited set of SUMO E3 ligases have been identified, raising important questions about how substrate specificity is achieved. In budding yeast, the nuclear protein Esc2 functio...
