ABSTRACT To elucidate SUMO-1 functions in vivo, we targeted by homologous recombination the last three exons of the murine Sumo-1 gene. Sumo-1 mRNA abundance was reduced to one-half in heterozygotes and was undetectable in Sumo-1 −/− mice, and SUMO-1-conjugated RanGAP1 was detectable in wild-type mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) but not in Sumo-1 −/− MEFs, indicating that gene targeting yielded Sumo-1-null mice. Sumo-1 mRNA is expressed in all tissues of wild-type mice, and its abundance is highest in the testis, brain, lungs, and spleen. Sumo-2 and Sumo-3 mRNAs are also expressed in all tissues, but their abundance was not upregulated in Sumo-1-null mice. The development and function of testis are normal in the absence of Sumo-1, and Sumo-1 − / − mice of both sexes are viable and fertile. In contrast to a previous report (F. S. Alkuraya et al., Science 313:1751, 2006), we did not observe embryonic or early postnatal demise of Sumo-1-targeted mice; genotypes of embryos and 21-day-old mice were of predicted Mendelian ratios, and there was no defect in lip and palate development in Sumo-1 +/− or Sumo-1 −/− embryos. The ability of Sumo-1 −/− MEFs to differentiate into adipocyte was not different from that of wild-type MEFs. Collectively, our results support the notion that most, if not all, SUMO-1 functions are compensated for in vivo by SUMO-2 and SUMO-3.

ABSTRACT Gadd45γ, a family member of the growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible gene family 45 (Gadd45), is strongly induced by interleukin-2 (IL-2) in peripheral T cells. While in most tissues all Gadd45 family members are expressed, Gadd45γ is the only member that is induced by IL-2. Here we show that the IL-2-induced expression of Gadd45γ is dependent on a signaling pathway mediated by the tyrosine kinase Jak3 and the transcription factors Stat5a and Stat5b (signal transducer and activator of transcription). Previous studies with ectopically overexpressed Gadd45γ in various cell lines implicated its function in negative growth control. To analyze the physiological role of Gadd45γ we used homologous recombination to generate mice lacking Gadd45γ. Gadd45γ-deficient mice develop normally, are indistinguishable from their littermates, and are fertile. Furthermore, hematopoiesis in mice lacking Gadd45γ is not impaired and Gadd45γ-deficient T lymphocytes show normal responses to IL-2. These data demonstrate that Gadd45γ is not essential for normal mouse development and hematopoiesis, possibly due to functional redundancy among the Gadd45 family members. Gadd45γ is also dispensable for IL-2-induced T-cell proliferation.
