RING tetramerization is required for nuclear body biogenesis and PML sumoylation

Promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) is a scaffolding protein that organizes PML nuclear bodies. Here the authors present the tetrameric crystal structure of the PML RING domain and show that RING tetramerization is functionally important for nuclear body formation and PML sumoylation.
