The Proteolytic Activity of Ubiquitin-specific Protease 28 Is Modulated by the N-terminal Domain
Structural highlights
FunctionUBP28_HUMAN Deubiquitinase involved in DNA damage response checkpoint and MYC proto-oncogene stability. Involved in DNA damage induced apoptosis by specifically deubiquitinating proteins of the DNA damage pathway such as CLSPN. Also involved in G2 DNA damage checkpoint, by deubiquitinating CLSPN, and preventing its degradation by the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). In contrast, it does not deubiquitinate PLK1. Specifically deubiquitinates MYC in the nucleoplasm, leading to prevent MYC degradation by the proteasome: acts by specifically interacting with isoform 1 of FBXW7 (FBW7alpha) in the nucleoplasm and counteracting ubiquitination of MYC by the SCF(FBW7) complex. In contrast, it does not interact with isoform 4 of FBXW7 (FBW7gamma) in the nucleolus, allowing MYC degradation and explaining the selective MYC degradation in the nucleolus.[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedThe deubiquitinase ubiquitin-specific protease 28 (Usp28) contains a ubiquitin-binding region (UBR) composed of one ubiquitin-associated domain (UBA) and one ubiquitin-interacting motif (UIM) at its N-terminus. It is of interest that an additional small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-interacting motif (SIM) is located next to its UIM. To date, the functional role of the Usp28 UBR is still not understood. To elucidate the regulatory mechanism of the UBR on the full functional display of Usp28, in the present study, NMR and biochemical approaches were applied. The solution structure of Usp28 UBR was obtained, and the key residues responsible for ubiquitin and SUMO1/2 recognition were identified. In addition, we find that the ubiquitin-binding ability of Usp28 UBR was required for full enzymatic activity of Usp28, whereas binding of SUMO1/2 impaired the catalytic activity of the enzyme by competitively blocking its interactions with ubiquitin substrates. Our findings provide a first insight into understanding how the enzymatic activity of Usp28 is regulated by its non-catalytic UBR and endogenous ligands.
