SUMOylation of ROR-γt inhibits IL-17 expression and inflammation via HDAC2

Interleukin-17 (IL-17)-secreting CD4 T cells (Th17) are induced by the master transcription factor RORγt, and are important for anti-fungal immunity and inflammatory responses. Here the authors show that Ubc9-mediated SUMOylation of RORγt induces HDAC2 binding to IL-17 promoter for suppressing IL-17...

description Interleukin-17 (IL-17)-secreting CD4 T cells (Th17) are induced by the master transcription factor RORγt, and are important for anti-fungal immunity and inflammatory responses. Here the authors show that Ubc9-mediated SUMOylation of RORγt induces HDAC2 binding to IL-17 promoter for suppressing IL-17 production in Th17 cells.
