Abstract

Ubiquitylation and sumoylation, the covalent attachment of the polypeptides ubiquitin and SUMO, respectively, to target proteins, are pervasive mechanisms for controlling cellular functions. Here, we summarize the key steps and enzymes involved in ubiquitin and SUMO conjugation and provide an overview of how they are crucial for maintaining genome stability. Specifically, we review research that has revealed how ubiquitylation and sumoylation regulate and coordinate various pathways of DNA damage recognition, signaling, and repair at the biochemical, cellular, and whole-organism levels. In addition to providing key insights into the control and importance of DNA repair and associated processes, such work has established paradigms for regulatory control that are likely to extend to other cellular processes and that may provide opportunities for better understanding and treatment of human disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
