Access through your institution Buy or subscribe Using a proteomic screen in _Caenorhabditis elegans_, Kaminsky _et al_. identified a group of intermediate filament proteins as putative
targets of the small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO), SMO-1. To investigate this possible link between sumoylation and filament assembly, the authors focused on IFB-1A, which links the
apical and basal hemidesmosome-like structures of the epidermis and is essential for embryonic elongation and maintenance of muscle attachment to the cuticle. > “Sumoylation of IFB-1A
occurs at the C terminus and regulates the > assembly of IFB-1A into epidermal filaments” This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access
