DeltaNp63alpha is exclusively expressed in stem cells and progenitor cells of the stratified epithelia. It promotes cell proliferation by antagonizing p53 and related TAp63/TAp73. Here, we report that specific desumoylation by SUMO protease SuPr-1 provides a fine-tuning mechanism for DeltaNp63alpha repressor activity. We found that disrupting the sumoylation site compromised DeltaNp63alpha repressor activity profoundly against TAp63gamma and TAp73beta-mediated transcription activation, but not to p53-mediated transcription. We further found that SuPr-1 specifically bound to sumoylated DeltaNp63alpha and hydrolyzed SUMO. Consequently, SuPr-1 expression reduced DeltaNp63alpha repressor activity to TAp63gamma and TAp73beta, whereas p53-mediated transactivation was unaffected. Collectively, these data suggest that SuPr-1-mediated DeltaNp63alpha desumoylation elaborately regulates epithelial growth.
