Identification of SUMO targets required to maintain human stem cells in the pluripotent state. - Identification of SUMO modified proteins from hiPS cells


ABSTRACT: To determine the role of SUMO modification in the maintenance of pluripotent stem cells we used ML792, a potent and selective inhibitor of SUMO Activating Enzyme. Treatment of human induced pluripotent stem cells with ML792 initiated changes associated with loss of pluripotency such as reduced expression of key pluripotency markers. To identify putative effector proteins and establish sites of SUMO modification, cells were engineered to stably express either SUMO1 or SUMO2 with TGG to KGG mutations that facilitate GlyGly-K peptide immunoprecipitation and identification. A total of 976 SUMO sites were identified in 427 proteins. STRING enrichment created 3 networks of proteins with functions in regulation of gene expression, ribosome biogenesis and RNA splicing, although the latter two categories represented only 5% of the total GGK peptide intensity. The remainder have roles in transcription and chromatin structure regulation. Many of the most heavily SUMOylated proteins form a network of zinc-finger transcription factors centred on TRIM28 and associated with silencing of retroviral elements. At the level of whole proteins there was only limited evidence for SUMO paralogue-specific modification, although at the site level there appears to be a preference for SUMO2 modification over SUMO1 in acidic domains. We show that SUMO is involved in the maintenance of the pluripotent state in hiPSCs and identify many chromatin-associated proteins as bona fide SUMO substrates in human induced pluripotent stem cells.
