The S. pombe translation initiation factor eIF4G is Sumoylated and associates with the SUMO protease Ulp2.

SUMO is a small post-translational modifier, that is attached to lysine residues in target proteins. It acts by altering protein-protein interactions, protein localisation and protein activity. SUMO chains can also act as substrates for ubiquitination, resulting in proteasome-mediated degradation of...
