Abstract

An intimate relationship exists between the transcriptional coregulator Daxx, SUMO, and PML nuclear bodies. In this issue, Chang et al. (2011) provide structural insights into how phosphorylation of Daxx increases its affinity toward SUMOs and functional insights into how enhanced SUMO binding affects Daxx-PML interactions, PML nuclear body localization, and Daxx-mediated repression of genes encoding for antiapoptotic factors.
