Medical Definition: | A class of structurally related proteins of 12-20 kD in size. They covalently modify specific proteins in a manner analogous to UBIQUITIN. |
Previously Indexed: | Ubiquitins (1996-2001) |
SUMO-1 Protein - A 1.5 kD small ubiquitin-related modifier protein that can covalently bind via an isopeptide link to a number of cellular proteins. It may play a role in intracellular protein transport and a number of other cellular processes. |
