SUMO-mediated regulation of NLRP3 modulates inflammasome activity

SUMO-mediated regulation of NLRP3 modulates inflammasome activity

The NLRP3 inflammasome is an important component of inflammatory responses, but how it is negatively regulated is still unclear. Here the authors show that post-translational modification of NLRP3 by sumoylation suppresses inflammasome activity, and that desumoylation of NLRP3 by the SENP6 and SENP7...
