Background Information

PTEN(Phosphatase and tensin homolog) is also named as MMAC1, TEP1 and it modulates cell cycle progression and cell survival (blockage) through down-regulating the positive cell cycle-regulator (cycle D1) by its phosphatase activity and up-regulating the negative cell cycle regulator p21 (by its lipid phosphatase activity). PTEN is an important tumor suppressor whose inactivation frequency in cancers is ranked second after p53 tumor suppressor inactivation. PTEN is a 403-residue protein structured in an amino (N)-terminal phosphatase domain and a carboxy (C)-terminal C2 domain that binds phospholipid membranes. There are some report showing that SUMOylation appears to be a positive regulator in controlling PTEN membrane association, whereas phosphorylation is a negative regulator that may neutralize SUMOylation through intramolecular electrostatic interactions.
