Cancer cells showed moderate to strong nuclear staining. Many cases of melanomas, endometrial, lung, gastric and liver cancers were weakly stained or negative.

Description
SUMO1/sentrin specific peptidase 7 (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 many cellular processes. SUMO-specific proteases, such as SENP7, process SUMO precursors to generate a C-terminal diglycine motif required for the conjugation reaction. They also display isopeptidase activity for deconjugation of SUMO-conjugated substrates (Lima and Reverter, 2008 [PubMed 18799455]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2009]
