Function

Functions as an E3-type small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) ligase, stabilizing the interaction between UBE2I and the substrate, and as a SUMO-tethering factor. Plays a crucial role as a transcriptional coregulation in various cellular pathways, including the STAT pathway, the p53/TP53 pathway, the Wnt pathway and the steroid hormone signaling pathway. Involved in gene silencing. Mediates sumoylation of CEBPA, PARK7, HERC2, MYB, TCF4 and RNF168. In Wnt signaling, represses LEF1 and enhances TCF4 transcriptional activities through promoting their sumoylations. Enhances the sumoylation of MTA1 and may participate in its paralog-selective sumoylation.

Activity summary

The E3 SUMO-protein ligase PIAS4 also known as PIASy functions as an E3-type small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) ligase. This protein plays a role in SUMOylation a post-translational modification process where it catalyzes the transfer of SUMO from E2 conjugating enzyme to target substrates. PIAS4 has a mass of approximately 57 kDa and is expressed in various tissues including the brain heart and skeletal muscle. It shows localization in the nucleus reflecting its role in regulating nuclear processes.

Biological function summary

This protein modulates transcription by interacting with and modifying transcription factors through SUMOylation affecting their stability and activity. PIAS4 participates in multiprotein complexes which can influence gene expression and cellular responses to stress. Its role in DNA repair processes is significant as it SUMOylates proteins involved in homologous recombination and DNA damage response pathways aiding in maintaining genomic integrity.

Pathways

PIAS4 plays a role in the regulation of DNA damage repair and the STAT signaling pathway. It cooperates with proteins like BRCA1 and RAD51 in DNA repair ensuring the correct repair of double-strand breaks. In the STAT signaling pathway PIAS4 influences STAT transcription factors impacting various cellular activities including growth and apoptosis. This modulation links PIAS4 to cellular responses relevant to growth and stress.

Associated diseases and disorders

PIAS4 has connections to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Mutations or altered expression of PIAS4 can disrupt DNA repair processes leading to an increased susceptibility to cancer due to accumulated genomic instability. PIAS4 also interacts with proteins like p53 in pathways associated with cancer development. Additionally its involvement in stress response mechanisms could link it to neurodegenerative diseases possibly through affecting neuronal cell survival and function.
