    Snippet: There are two known examples of viral proteins targeting SUMO ligases, the human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 protein [86] and the Ebola virus VP35 protein [87] . The HPV E6 binds the PIASy SUMO ligase to inhibit sumoylation of PIASy substrates [86] . E6 did not induce degradation of PIASy so the inhibition of activity appears to be a direct result of binding. This binding and inhibitory activity was restricted to the high risk HPV 16 E6 protein and w.....
    Document: There are two known examples of viral proteins targeting SUMO ligases, the human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 protein [86] and the Ebola virus VP35 protein [87] . The HPV E6 binds the PIASy SUMO ligase to inhibit sumoylation of PIASy substrates [86] . E6 did not induce degradation of PIASy so the inhibition of activity appears to be a direct result of binding. This binding and inhibitory activity was restricted to the high risk HPV 16 E6 protein and was absent in the low risk HPV11 E6 protein.
