Structural basis for the E3 ligase activity enhancement of yeast Nse2 by SUMO-interacting motifs
Abstract
Nse2 is a SUMO E3 ligase component of the Smc5/6 multisubunit complex involved in the DNA repair and chromosome integrity. Here, the structure of the Nse2 in complex with an E2-SUMO thioester mimetic reveals the combined action of two SIM motifs during the E3- dependent conjugation reaction.
