摘要

UFMylation是一种新发现的翻译后修饰，发生在各种生物体中。UFM1与泛素类似，通过三步酶促反应共价连接到其底物上。与泛素化不同的是，泛素化涉及多种E1、E2和E3酶，UFMylation只涉及每种酶中的一种。许多研究表明，UFMylation涉及各种细胞过程。UFM1级联的异常与各种疾病，尤其是肿瘤密切相关。本文对UFMylation的过程和功能进行综述，重点介绍了UFMylation在各种癌症发生和发展中的作用及其分子机制，旨在为肿瘤的治疗提供新的靶点和策略。

Abstract

UFMylation is a newly discovered post‑translational modification that occurs in various organisms. UFM1 is similar to ubiquitin and covalently attaches to its substrate through a three‑step enzymatic reaction. Unlike ubiquitination

which involves multiple E1

and E3 enzymes

UFMylation involves only one of each type of enzyme. Many studies have shown that UFMylation involves various cellular processes. Abnormalities in the UFM1 cascade are closely related to various diseases

especially tumors. This article reviews the process and function of UFMylation

with a focus on its role and molecular mechanisms in the occurrence and development of various cancers

to identify new targets and strategies for the treatment of tumors.
