Protein partners of deubiquitinating enzymes [PDF]
Protein modification by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like molecules is a critical regulatory process. Like most regulated protein modifications, ubiquitination is reversible. Deubiquitination, the reversal of ubiquitination, is quickly being recognized as an important regulatory strategy.

Endocytosis: Why not wait to deubiquitinate? [PDF]
Deubiquitination by the Fat facets protein - a regulator of photoreceptor differentiation during Drosophila eye development - has been found to activate endocytosis, while ubiquitination inhibits endocytosis. Surprisingly, this is the opposite effect that ubiquitination has on endocytosis of many plasma membrane proteins.

In the Fanconi anemia pathway, deubiquitination of FANCD2 is a fundamental regulatory step. Here, the authors have developed a set of biochemical tools to reconstitute FANCD2 deubiquitination by recombinant USP1-UAF1-RAD51AP1 and reveal critical ...

Deubiquitinating Enzymes and Bone Remodeling [PDF]
Bone remodeling, which is essential for bone homeostasis, is controlled by multiple factors and mechanisms. In the past few years, studies have emphasized the role of the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis system in regulating bone remodeling. Deubiquitinases, which are grouped into five families, remove ubiquitin from target proteins and are involved in ...

USP7: Novel Drug Target in Cancer Therapy
Ubiquitin specific protease 7 (USP7) is one of the deubiquitinating enzymes (DUB) that erases ubiquitin and protects substrate protein from degradation.

The roles of protein ubiquitination in tumorigenesis and targeted drug discovery in lung cancer
The malignant lung cancer has a high morbidity rate and very poor 5-year survival rate. About 80% - 90% of protein degradation in human cells is occurred through the ubiquitination enzyme pathway.

Deciphering histone 2A deubiquitination [PDF]
Three recent papers have identified distinct enzymes that can remove ubiquitin from mammalian histone 2A (H2A). Functions in transcriptional activation, DNA repair and control of the cell cycle have been proposed for these enzymes.

A plague of deubiquitination [PDF]
Plague bacteria inject infected host cells with a ubiquitin-chopping enzyme, according to Zhou and colleagues in a study on [page 1327][1]. The group shows that the virulence factor YopJ operates as a deubiquitinase to shut down multiple signaling pathways that would otherwise help trigger ...

Components of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway compete for surfaces on Rad23 family proteins [PDF]
Background: The delivery of ubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome for degradation is a key step in the regulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, yet the mechanisms underlying this step are not understood in detail.
