'''STRUCTURE OF THE CYLD USP DOMAIN'''
===STRUCTURE OF THE CYLD USP DOMAIN===




==Overview==
<!--
The tumor suppressor CYLD antagonizes NF-kappaB and JNK signaling by disassembly of Lys63-linked ubiquitin chains synthesized in response to cytokine stimulation. Here we describe the crystal structure of the CYLD USP domain, revealing a distinctive architecture that provides molecular insights into its specificity toward Lys63-linked polyubiquitin. We identify regions of the USP domain responsible for this specificity and demonstrate endodeubiquitinase activity toward such chains. Pathogenic truncations of the CYLD C terminus, associated with the hypertrophic skin tumor cylindromatosis, disrupt the USP domain, accounting for loss of CYLD catalytic activity. A small zinc-binding B box domain, similar in structure to other crossbrace Zn-binding folds-including the RING domain found in E3 ubiquitin ligases-is inserted within the globular core of the USP domain. Biochemical and functional characterization of the B box suggests a role as a protein-interaction module that contributes to determining the subcellular localization of CYLD.
