[TNAP3_HUMAN] Ubiquitin-editing enzyme that contains both ubiquitin ligase and deubiquitinase activities. Involved in immune and inflammatory responses signaled by cytokines, such as TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta, or pathogens via Toll-like receptors (TLRs) through terminating NF-kappa-B activity. Essential component of a ubiquitin-editing protein complex, comprising also RNF11, ITCH and TAX1BP1, that ensures the transient nature of inflammatory signaling pathways. In cooperation with TAX1BP1 promotes disassembly of E2-E3 ubiquitin protein ligase complexes in IL-1R and TNFR-1 pathways; affected are at least E3 ligases TRAF6, TRAF2 and BIRC2, and E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes UBE2N and UBE2D3. In cooperation with TAX1BP1 promotes ubiquitination of UBE2N and proteasomal degradation of UBE2N and UBE2D3. Upon TNF stimulation, deubiquitinates 'Lys-63'-polyubiquitin chains on RIPK1 and catalyzes the formation of 'Lys-48'-polyubiquitin chains. This leads to RIPK1 proteasomal degradation and consequently termination of the TNF- or LPS-mediated activation of NF-kappa-B. Deubiquinates TRAF6 probably acting on 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin. Upon T-cell receptor (TCR)-mediated T-cell activation, deubiquitinates 'Lys-63'-polyubiquitin chains on MALT1 thereby mediating disassociation of the CBM (CARD11:BCL10:MALT1) and IKK complexes and preventing sustained IKK activation. Deubiquinates NEMO/IKBKG; the function is facilitated by TNIP1 and leads to inhibition of NF-kappa-B activation. Upon stimulation by bacterial peptidoglycans, probably deubiquitinates RIPK2. Can also inhibit I-kappa-B-kinase (IKK) through a non-catalytic mechanism which involves polyubiquitin; polyubiquitin promotes association with IKBKG and prevents IKK MAP3K7-mediated phosphorylation. Targets TRAF2 for lysosomal degradation. In vitro able to deubiquitinate both 'Lys-48'- and 'Lys-63' polyubiquitin chains. Inhibitor of programmed cell death. Has a role in the function of the lymphoid system.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB) regulator A20 antagonises IKK [IkappaB (inhibitor of kappaB) kinase] activation by modulating Lys63-linked polyubiquitination of cytokine-receptor-associated factors including TRAF2/6 (tumour-necrosis-factor-receptor-associated factor 2/6) and RIP1 (receptor-interacting protein 1). In the present paper we describe the crystal structure of the N-terminal OTU (ovarian tumour) deubiquitinase domain of A20, which differs from other deubiquitinases but shares the minimal catalytic core with otubain-2. Analysis of conserved surface regions allows prediction of ubiquitin-binding sites for the proximal and distal ubiquitin molecules. Structural and biochemical analysis suggests a novel architecture of the catalytic triad, which might be present in a subset of OTU domains including Cezanne and TRABID (TRAF-binding domain). Biochemical analysis shows a preference of the isolated A20 OTU domain for Lys48-linked tetraubiquitin in vitro suggesting that additional specificity factors might be required for the physiological function of A20 in cells.
