Structural highlights
FunctionUBP20_HUMAN Deubiquitinating enzyme involved in beta-2 adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) recycling. Acts as a regulator of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling by mediating the deubiquitination beta-2 adrenergic receptor (ADRB2). Plays a central role in ADRB2 recycling and resensitization after prolonged agonist stimulation by constitutively binding ADRB2, mediating deubiquitination of ADRB2 and inhibiting lysosomal trafficking of ADRB2. Upon dissociation, it is probably transferred to the translocated beta-arrestins, possibly leading to beta-arrestins deubiquitination and disengagement from ADRB2. This suggests the existence of a dynamic exchange between the ADRB2 and beta-arrestins. Deubiquitinates DIO2, thereby regulating thyroid hormone regulation. Deubiquitinates HIF1A, leading to stabilize HIF1A and enhance HIF1A-mediated activity. Mediates deubiquitination of both 'Lys-48'- and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains.[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedDeubiquitinase USP20/VDU2 has been demonstrated to play important roles in multiple cellular processes by controlling the life span of substrate proteins including hypoxia-inducible factor HIF1alpha, and so forth. USP20 contains four distinct structural domains including the N-terminal zinc-finger ubiquitin binding domain (ZnF-UBP), the catalytic domain (USP domain), and two tandem DUSP domains, and none of the structures for these four domains has been solved. Meanwhile, except for the ZnF-UBP domain, the biological functions for USP20's catalytic domain and tandem DUSP domains have been at least partially clarified. Here in this study, we determined the solution structure of USP20 ZnF-UBP domain and investigated its binding properties with mono-ubiquitin and poly-ubiquitin (K48-linked di-ubiquitin) by using NMR and molecular modeling techniques. USP20's ZnF-UBP domain forms a spherically shaped fold consisting of a central beta-sheet with either one alpha-helix or two alpha-helices packed on each side of the sheet. However, although having formed a canonical core structure essential for ubiquitin recognition, USP20 ZnF-UBP presents weak ubiquitin binding capacity. The structural basis for understanding USP20 ZnF-UBP's ubiquitin binding capacity was revealed by NMR data-driven docking. Although the electrostatic interactions between D264 of USP5 (E87 in USP20 ZnF-UBP) and R74 of ubiquitin are kept, the loss of the extensive interactions formed between ubiquitin's di-glycine motif and the conserved and non-conserved residues of USP20 ZnF-UBP domain (W41, E55, and Y84) causes a significant decrease in its binding affinity to ubiquitin. Our findings indicate that USP20 ZnF-UBP domain might have a physiological role unrelated to its ubiquitin binding capacity.
