Function

Protease that catalyzes two essential functions in the SUMO pathway (PubMed:11896061, PubMed:12192048, PubMed:15296745, PubMed:20194620, PubMed:21965678). 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:15296745). 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:15296745, PubMed:20194620, PubMed:21965678). May down-regulate CTNNB1 levels and thereby modulate the Wnt pathway (By similarity). Deconjugates SUMO2 from MTA1 (PubMed:21965678). Plays a dynamic role in adipogenesis by desumoylating and promoting the stabilization of CEBPB (PubMed:20194620). Acts as a regulator of the cGAS-STING pathway by catalyzing desumoylation of CGAS and STING1 during the late phase of viral infection (By similarity).

Activity summary

SENP2 also known as Sentrin/SUMO-specific protease 2 functions as a protease that removes SUMO (Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier) moieties from target proteins. This activity regulates the sumoylation state of proteins affecting their stability activity and localization. SENP2 has a molecular mass of around 63 kDa. It is widely expressed in various tissues including the heart liver and placenta with particularly high levels in these areas suggesting its importance across different biological processes.

Biological function summary

SUMO E3 ligase complexes often include SENP2 as an integral part. It modulates various signaling pathways by targeting transcription factors and other proteins involved in cellular stress response cell division and apoptosis. Through de-sumoylation SENP2 influences the activity of proteins by altering their transcriptional potency nuclear transport or protein degradation rates. SENP2's activity ensures appropriate cellular responses to environmental cues and maintains proper cellular homeostasis by balancing protein modifications.

Pathways

SUMO-related mechanisms like nucleocytoplasmic transport and DNA repair involve SENP2. In these pathways SENP2 interacts with proteins like RanBP2 and PML contributing to cell cycle regulation and maintaining genomic stability. In the hypoxia response pathway SENP2's influence is important for modulating hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). These interactions illustrate SENP2’s regulatory roles in adapting cellular function in response to stress and changes in the cellular environment.

Associated diseases and disorders

SENP2 displays relevance in cancer and cardiovascular disorders. Altered sumoylation activity linked with SENP2 is often observed in certain cancers where it may misregulate transcription factors like p53 and c-Myc. In cardiovascular diseases SENP2 interacts with proteins such as NFATc1 impacting cardiac development and function. These associations highlight SENP2's potential as a therapeutic target where modulation of its activity might offer novel treatment avenues for related diseases.
