Promyelocytic Leukemia Protein (PML) Requirement for Interferon-induced Global Cellular SUMOylation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report that interferon (IFN) α treatment at short and long periods increases the global cellular SUMOylation and requires the presence of the SUMO E3 ligase promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML), the organizer of PML nuclear bodies (NBs). Several PML isoforms (PMLI-PMLVII) derived from a single PML gene by alternative splicing, share the same N-terminal region but differ in their C-terminal sequences. Introducing each of the human PML isoform in PML-negative cells revealed that enhanced SUMOylation in response to IFN is orchestrated by PMLIII and PMLIV. Large-scale proteomics experiments enabled the identification of 558 SUMO sites on 389 proteins, of which 172 sites showed differential regulation upon IFNα stimulation, including K49 from UBC9, the sole SUMO E2 protein. Furthermore, IFNα induces PML-dependent UBC9 transfer to the nuclear matrix where it colocalizes with PML within the NBs and enhances cellular SUMOylation levels. Our results demonstrate that SUMOylated UBC9 and PML are key players for IFN-increased cellular SUMOylation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
