Anti-Human SENP1 Antibody Pair

Product Description: SUMO specific peptidase 1 (SENP1) is a cysteine protease that plays essential roles in the SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) pathway. It catalyzes two key functions: processing of SUMO precursors to their mature forms and deconjugation of SUMO from modified proteins. SENP1 is primarily localized in the nucleus and has broad specificity for the three mammalian SUMO paralogs (SUMO-1, SUMO-2, and SUMO-3). The enzyme contains a conserved C-terminal catalytic domain and an N-terminal domain that regulates cellular localization and substrate specificity. SENP1 is crucial for embryonic development and erythropoiesis. Dysregulation of SENP1 has been implicated in various cancers, including prostate cancer, where it enhances androgen receptor-dependent transcription and promotes tumor progression. Additionally, SENP1 has been shown to regulate c-Myc stability and activity, further contributing to its role in cancer development. Protein Function: Protease that catalyzes two essential functions in the SUMO pathway (PubMed:10652325, PubMed:15199155, PubMed:15487983, PubMed:16253240, PubMed:16553580, PubMed:21829689, PubMed:21965678, PubMed:23160374, PubMed:24943844, PubMed:25406032, PubMed:29506078, PubMed:34048572, PubMed:37257451). The first is the hydrolysis of an alpha-linked peptide bond at the C-terminal end of the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) propeptides, SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3 leading to the mature form of the proteins (PubMed:15487983). The second is the deconjugation of SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3 from targeted proteins, by cleaving an epsilon-linked peptide bond between the C-terminal glycine of the mature SUMO and the lysine epsilon-amino group of the target protein (PubMed:15199155, PubMed:16253240, PubMed:21829689, PubMed:21965678, PubMed:23160374, PubMed:24943844, PubMed:25406032, PubMed:29506078, PubMed:34048572, PubMed:37257451). Deconjugates SUMO1 from HIPK2 (PubMed:16253240). Deconjugates SUMO1 from HDAC1 and BHLHE40/DEC1, which decreases its transcriptional repression activity (PubMed:15199155, PubMed:21829689). Deconjugates SUMO1 from CLOCK, which decreases its transcriptional activation activity (PubMed:23160374). Deconjugates SUMO2 from MTA1 (PubMed:21965678). Inhibits N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation by mediating SUMO1 deconjugation from METTL3 and ALKBH5: METTL3 inhibits the m6A RNA methyltransferase activity, while ALKBH5 desumoylation promotes m6A demethylation (PubMed:29506078, PubMed:34048572, PubMed:37257451). Desumoylates CCAR2 which decreases its interaction with SIRT1 (PubMed:25406032). Deconjugates SUMO1 from GPS2 (PubMed:24943844) [The Uniprot Consortium]
