Sumoylation

The covalent attachment of a small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) to substrate protein, a process that is biochemically analogous to, but functionally distinct from, ubiquitination; sumoylation is critical to many different biological processes—e.g., protein localisation and stability, transcriptional activities, nucleocytoplasmic signalling and transport, genome replication, and regulation of gene expression
