PIAS4 (E3 SUMO-protein ligase PIAS4)

FEATURES

FAMILY

DESCRIPTION

Also known as PIAS4_HUMAN, PIAS4, PIASG. 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. Interacts with AR, AXIN1, GATA2, LEF1, TP53 and STAT1 (IFNG-induced). Binds to AT-rich DNA sequences, known as matrix or scaffold attachment regions (MARs/SARs) (By similarity). Interacts with TICAM1. Interacts with KLF8; the interaction results in SUMO ligation and repression of KLF8 transcriptional activity and of its cell cycle progression into G(1) phase. Interacts with MTA1. Interacts with PRDM1/Blimp-1 (PubMed:28842558).
