Cancer tissues displayed weak to moderate nucleolar positivity. Rare cases of melanomas and colorectal cancers were distinctly stained. A majority of lymphomas, renal cancers along with a few cases of endometrial, cervical and stomach cancers were negative.

SUMO1/sentrin/SMT3 specific peptidase 3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The reversible posttranslational modification of proteins by the addition of small ubiquitin-like SUMO proteins (see SUMO1; MIM 601912) is required for numerous biologic processes. SUMO-specific proteases, such as SENP3, are responsible for the initial processing of SUMO precursors to generate a C-terminal diglycine motif required for the conjugation reaction. They also have isopeptidase activity for the removal of SUMO from high molecular mass SUMO conjugates (Di Bacco et al., 2006 [PubMed 16738315]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2009]
